While the vast majority of Jura wines are produced in the Northern half of the region between Etoile and Arbois, the Côtes du Jura catchment area extends some distance to the South.

It covers 105 communes in total, stretching for almost 80 km from Champagne-sur-Loue in the north to Saint-Amour in the south (it is a pure coincidence that these two villages share their names with the appellations Champagne and Saint-Amour). Côtes du Jura wine can be red, white or rosé and the appellation also includes the famous vin jaune and vin de paille du Jura.
