The Bonnes Mares vineyard lies at the edge of Chambolle Musigny and one part spills into Morey Saint Denis. Chambolle Musigny lies just north of Vougeot and South of Morey Saint Denis on two steep slopes at either end of the communes which rise above the village of Chambolle in the valley between them.

The calcium content of the soil which gives the wines of Chambolle Musigny their great delicacy, is less pronounced, and compared to le Musigny, Bonnes Mares is more robust, yet still extremely elegant.
