About

Based in Savigny-les-Beaune, this 47-hectare property is controlled and operated by Antonin’s son Dominique and his granddaughter Hombeline. Passionate, Dominique and Hombeline are always looking for better quality and terroir expression. Dominique created a model winery, producing wines of impeccable quality from 25+ different appellations, including some of the most renowned villages of the Côte d’Or.

Terroir

Volnay is located in the Southern part of Côte de Beaune. Clos des Chênes is one of the most famous Premiers Crus of Volnay. The Domaine Guyon wine area for Volnay 1er Cru Clos des Chênes covers 0.87 hectare (2.15 acres).

Vinification

Hand-harvested, the grapes are then carried in small boxes and sorted out upon arrival at the winery. Long fermentation during 20 days in wooden open vats, with punching down of the cap and temperature control. Ageing in oak barrels (30% new oak) and estate bottling after 16 months.

Tasting Notes
