Chassagne-Montrachet (French pronunciation: [ʃasaɲ mɔ̃ʁaʃɛ]) is a commune in the Côte-d'Or department of Bourgogne-Franche-Comté in eastern France.

It used to be known under the name Chassagne-le-Haut, but the name was changed to Chassagne-Montrachet by a decree on November 27, 1879.[3] Around this time, many Burgundy villages appended the name of their most famous vineyard to that of the village name.
