In Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, viticultural Burgundy is confined to the Rhône department: the slopes of Beaujolais country whose wines may claim Burgundy's regional appellations. A singular market, straddling two identities, and the most affordable corner of the Burgundy universe.
This page connects our analyses: find detailed values and listings on the Rhône page, and the full vineyard panorama on the Burgundy page.
The estates concerned are those of Beaujolais — granite crus to the north, Pierres Dorées to the south — whose production can fall back on the Coteaux bourguignons or Bourgogne gamay appellations. For a buyer, this dual attachment means wider outlets and a more flexible commercial card.
Land values remain set by the Beaujolais market: expect a one-to-five ratio between generic Beaujolais vines and a renowned cru, with coherent built ensembles at a premium.

All the national references sit in our observatory: vineyard prices in France.
To go further, see the Rhône departmental page and Beaujolais listings: most of the regional supply concentrates there.
Worth noting for investors: proximity to Lyon makes this one of the few vineyards where land value also rests on residential and wine-tourism demand. The golden-limestone wine farmhouses of the Pierres Dorées sell as much for their setting as for their vines — a welcome liquidity factor at resale.
