Acquired in 1964 by Joseph Arlaud, the grandfather of the current owner, this plot was originally classified as "terre a vigne Gevrey-Chambertin." However, a decree in the same year reclassified this particular plot, not the surrounding ones, as AOC Bourgogne. The soils are clay-limestone with the presence of Bresse marl in depth.

This cuvée is composed of two parcels, namely, the lieu-dit "Les Seuvrées" and "La Justice." The wines from Les Seuvrées tend to be more elegant, while La Justice adds more texture and body to the blend.

This wine is often described as the most "elegant" of the Côte de Nuits. The parcels are located in the north part of the village, near Morey-Saint-Denis. The four parcels used to make this wine are named: Les Buissières, Les Herbues, Les Chardannes, and Les Gammaires.

The name "Les Cheseaux" comes from the Latin "casale" (building plot) used in the Gallo-Roman era. It generally refers to ruins, with remaining stones. The origin is shared with Les Echezeaux and Les Grand Echezeaux. The disintegration of the bedrock has created a blend of clay-limestone marls with white stones.
