Argilly is located some 8 km south-east of Nuits-Saint-Georges and 12 km north-east of Beaune. Access to the commune is by the D35 road from Gerland to the north passing through the commune north of the village and continuing to Bagnot in the east. Access to the village is by the D20 which branches off the D35 in the commune and passes south-west through the village and continues to Beaune. The A36 autoroute passes through the south of the commune but there is no exit in or near the commune. The commune is heavily forested in the north-east, east, and south with more forest in the north-west. The rest of the commune is farmland.[3]
There is the Étang de Longbroche reservoir south-east of the village with streams flowing into it and the Meuzin stream flows south west of the village.[3]
The Castle of the Dukes of Burgundy was destroyed in 1590. There was also a tile factory which belonged to the Dukes.
