Cote d'Or

Explanation:
It would be Gold Coast but it's in France so you leave it as is (the English versions are in Australia and formerly in West Africa)
And i think you mean "widely cultivated" not largely

Côte d'Or

Explanation:
As others have said, don't translate. But 'Gold Coast'?!!! Burgundy is a long way from the sea - this is 'côte' = slope, hillside.
