Nuits-Saint-Georges (French pronunciation: [nɥi sɛ̃ ʒɔʁʒ]) is a commune in the arrondissement of Beaune of the Côte-d'Or department in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region in Eastern France.

Nuits-Saint-Georges is one of the main towns of the Côte de Nuits wine-producing area of Burgundy.

[3] The local marble is a sedimentary rock, a limestone, that is not susceptible to frost damage.

There is a vein of this stone, called popularly "the Comblanchien" and extending from Nuits-Saint-Georges to Nevers, which has made the reputations of the quarries of the region.

The stone will harmonize with any style by virtue of the variety of its shades of colour, the pink of bindweed (Convolvulus) and beige, and its grain.
