It basically means from an area of extra distinction. Beaujolais is good, but a cru level beaujolais from say, Morgon, will be special. The system is even more stratified in other areas of france. In Burgundy, for instance, they have premier cru and grand cru which get down to specific vineyards that have been classified by the wine laws as superior. I hope this helps with explanation. If not, let me know and I'll try to get you a better description, if more lengthy. Or someone else may have a simpler way of saying it.
