Meaning ‘Orchard’, the vineyard of Vergers is situated at the top of the slope as it bends north away from the village. The aspect is north-east so the vines enjoy a longer, less sun kissed aspect and hence the freshness of the wines are immediate. Amiot’s 0.5 hectare is planted with 65 year old vines and he mentioned that “Les Vergers was arguably our best vineyard in 2024, and the fruit was intense and very exotic when picked”.
This is an En Primeur wine and special conditions apply.

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.

Generous and richly textured this wine opens with a creamy, opulent nose of tropical fruit, dried pineapple, peach, and subtle vanilla oak, lifted by exotic spice and roasted cashew notes. On the palate it is intense and layered, with concentrated fruit complemented by striking minerality. Fresh, tangy citrus acidity cuts through the richness, keeping the wine vibrant, mouthwatering, and explosive, while the finish is long, precise. Stunning!
