Domaine Guy Amiot et Fils

Domaine Guy Amiot’s work springs from a long tradition begun in the 1920s under the direction of founder Arsène Amiot. Arsène started acquiring parcels in Chassagne in the 1920s and under his direction Domaine Amiot became one of the first domaines in Burgundy to bottle their own wines. By the time Guy Amiot (who the current domaine is named after), took over in 1985, the domaine had built up very impressive holdings and had passed the knowledge of how to best care for the vines down from generation to generation. There was a continuity of work in the vineyards that led to solid consistency in the wines.

The bouquet is vibrant with aromas of strawberry coulis and red berry notes. On the palate the wine is soft and silky with smooth tannins, hints of menthol and layers of strawberry, raspberry, and spice. A streak of freshness carries through, giving the wine lift, balance, and elegance. Delicious!
100% destemmed after hand picking, fermented in epoxy tank before finishing ferment in 30% new oak barrels.
