Red dry
Beaune AOC “Pinot Noir” expression from Domaine Antonin Guyon’s monopole “Clos de la Chaume Gaufriot” vineyard.
The aroma reveals notes of red cherries, raspberries, currants, and wild berries. These are complemented by subtle spice notes, forest floor, earthy tones, and delicate herbal nuances.
On the palate, the wine is elegant and balanced, with medium concentration and a smooth texture. The freshness of the red fruit is supported by lively acidity, while the tannins provide structure and a longer flavour profile. The palate is dominated by cherries, red berries, subtle spices, and gentle minerality.
“Clos de la Chaume Gaufriot” is a monopole of Domaine Antonin Guyon within the Beaune AOC territory. The vineyard is located in the western part of Beaune. The grapes at Domaine Antonin Guyon are harvested by hand and transported to the cellar in small crates, where careful selection takes place.
Fermentation takes place for around 15 days in open wooden vats, with temperature control and cap management (pigeage). After fermentation, the wine is aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, around a quarter of which are new.
Serve at 15–16 °C; pairs well with roast venison with cherry sauce, veal cutlet with mushrooms, and aged Comté or Reblochon cheese.
One of Burgundy's largest family-owned wine estates, managing approximately 50 hectares of vineyards across the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune. The estate was established in the 1960s, when Antonin Guyon began acquiring vineyard parcels in some of Burgundy's most prestigious appellations. Today, the family's holdings extend from Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny in the north to Meursault, Volnay, and Corton in the south, allowing the domaine to produce wines that reflect a wide range of Burgundian terroirs, from regional appellations to Grand Cru vineyards.
Particular attention is given to preserving the identity of each vineyard site. Grapes are harvested by hand, carefully sorted, and all wines are vinified and aged at the estate. Red wines are fermented in wooden vats, while white wines are fermented in oak barrels. The ageing regime, including the proportion of new oak, is tailored to the origin and structure of each wine. Since 2018, Domaine Antonin Guyon has been certified organic, reflecting its long-term commitment to environmentally responsible viticulture.
The philosophy of Domaine Antonin Guyon is centred on expressing the unique character of each vineyard. Working exclusively with Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, the estate produces a portfolio dominated by Premier Cru and Grand Cru wines. Each vineyard parcel is vinified separately, preserving the distinctive identity of its terroir.
Today, the estate's vineyards span some of Burgundy's most renowned villages, including Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny, Aloxe-Corton, Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet, and Volnay. This geographical diversity enables Domaine Antonin Guyon to showcase the influence of Burgundy's varied soils, topography, and microclimates, offering a comprehensive expression of the Côte d'Or through its wines.
