“A powerful, concentrated wine of great finesse that lingers on the palate, supported by a mineral touch that provides the freshness needed for balance. All this is accompanied by elegant notes of acacia blossom, spices (anise, vanilla), and citrus, which enliven both the nose and the palate. Clearly a wine with great aging potential. ” (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2012)

Wine rated (2011 guide) 15,5/20 (Very good wine)

Rated estate (2022 guide): 3 stars (High-quality production, setting the standard in its sector)

About the estate:

With 47 hectares spread across 25 climats, this family-owned estate—composed of countless small plots—boasts a unique viticultural heritage, featuring in particular a first-rate selection of vineyards from the area surrounding the Corton hill. The wines are true to their terroirs, unpretentious, and full of sincerity. The estate is managed by Dominique Guyon, cultivated organically and certified as of the 2018 vintage. The reds, made from partially destemmed grapes, combine ripe fruit with fine tannins. They are faithful expressions of their terroirs, with the 2018 vintage featuring a range of well-crafted reds where the Corton Clos-du-Roi leads the pack—which is hardly surprising. Among the whites, the Meursault Charmes-Dessus and Pernand-Sous-Frétille are particularly noteworthy.

About the wine:

Mineral, salty, and with subtle woody notes, this Corton charms with its inviting texture. The minerality comes to the fore, bringing you back to reality. The terroir’s rigor comes through in this firm, powerful wine, which is still in its prime. Patience.

About the estate:

This large 48-hectare estate is located in Savigny-lès-Beaune. In the 1960s, Antonin Guyon purchased parcels of land stretching from Gevrey-Chambertin to Meursault. In 1970, his son Dominique expanded the estate. He succeeded in acquiring 350 plots belonging to nearly 80 owners in the commune of Meuilley in the Hautes-Côtes-de-Nuits, totaling 22 hectares. Today, Dominique Guyon manages the estate and oversees winemaking with the help of his cellar master, who is also his vineyard manager, Vincent Nicot. The vineyard is meticulously tended, with plowing, moderate soil amendments, limited yields, and grapes always sorted at harvest time. The estate offers a wide range of wines from both the Côte-de-Nuits and the Côte-de-Beaune, including numerous 1er Crus, several Grands Crus from Corton, and a Charmes-Chambertin. All the wines display beautiful, expressive fruit and great density.
