"A Premier Cru from one of the estate's finest plots on the edge of Île de Vergelesses, from which it takes its name: graceful and seductive..."
"Soft, delicate, and refined aromas of blue and black fruits with an underlying mineral tension. The palate is linear, with a round and polished texture and a mineral and chalky finish. A beautiful floral finish full of finesse. Excellent to drink now, but has great aging potential. Drink or hold." (James Suckling 2025)

Rated estate (2022 guide) 3 stars (High-quality production, serving as a benchmark in its sector)
About the estate:
With 47 hectares across 25 climats, this family estate, assembled from countless plots, boasts a unique wine-growing heritage, with a particularly impressive representation of the area around Corton hill. The wines are true to their terroirs of origin, unpretentious and full of sincerity. The estate is managed by Dominique Guyon, run organically and certified from the 2018 vintage onwards. The reds, made from partially destemmed grapes, combine ripe fruit and fine tannins. They are faithful representatives of their terroir of origin, with a range of very successful reds in 2018, led by the Corton Clos-du-Roi, which is not unusual. The whites include the remarkable Meursault Charmes-Dessus and Pernand Sous-Frétille.

About wine:
The Pernand-Vergelesses Les Vergelesses 1er Cru 2023 offers more complexity and minerality than Les Fichots, with light aromas of iris flowers mingling with red fruits and a subtle hint of incense. The palate is medium-bodied with good grip. Fresh and showing nice tension, it is more precise than Les Fichots with a pleasant savory finish. Recommended. 2026-2040

About the estate:
This large 48-hectare estate is located in Savigny-lès-Beaune. In the 1960s, Antonin Guyon purchased plots of land stretching from Gevrey-Chambertin to Meursault. In 1970, his son Dominique completed the estate. He managed to acquire 350 plots belonging to nearly 80 owners in the commune of Meuilley in the Hautes-Côtes-de-Nuits, representing 22 hectares. Today, Dominique Guyon runs the estate and carries out the vinification with the help of his cellar master, who is also his vineyard manager, Vincent Nicot. The vineyard is particularly well tended, with plowing, moderate amendments, limited yields, and grapes that are always sorted at harvest time. The estate offers a wide range of wines from both the Côte-de-Nuits and Côte-de-Beaune, including numerous Premier Crus and a few Grands Crus from Corton and Charmes-Chambertin. All the wines have beautiful fruitiness and great density.
