“A benchmark Grand Cru—gourmet and with enormous potential!”

Dominique Guyon has crafted an elegant 2021 Corton Grand Cru Bressandes, with aromas of fresh violet blossoms, small wild blackberries, and crisp blackcurrant seeds. Its silky, velvety palate is built around firm yet well-integrated tannins, enhanced by spicy notes. Its long, charming finish leaves a lasting impression on the palate. A great wine.

Wine rated 95/100 (2020 vintage)

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 remain true to their terroirs of origin, unpretentious and full of sincerity. The estate is managed by Dominique Guyon and has been organically farmed and certified since 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 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, featuring plowing, moderate soil amendments, limited yields, and grapes that are always sorted during harvest. 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 exhibit beautiful, expressive fruit and great density.
