It bears repeating that readers bemoaning the lack of fine, affordable Burgundy from the Côte d'Or should beat a path to the Guillemot family's door. - William Kelley, Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Thank you to everyone who came out to our 2019 Pierre Guillemot tasting yesterday! The wines were showing so beautifully from the Bourgogne Rouge to the Corton.
We've been beating the drum for these wines for a long time and it was no surprise to us that the 19s are vibrant and expressive, with grace, perfume and beautifully supple structure. Aside from being delicious, in 2019 delineation between the cuvées is particularly prominent and gratifying. The nuances of a fleshier Jarrons above the elegant Narbantons, separated by only a 5m path are satisfyingly perceptible. Likewise, the grandeur of structure in Gravains compared to the svelte Serpentières. I encourage you to see the beauty of the different climats for yourself. We are so excited to offer many of these wines in magnum as well so don't miss out on those.

Burgundy lovers should collaboratively create a set of ‘pound-for-pound’ rankings that we can all smilingly argue over and revise as needed. I nominate Savigny’s Vincent Guillemot as deserving a spot at or near the top, consistent and movingly beautiful as they are. There is a fairly strong house style here, with most wines showing more purity and freshness than their peers. These are graceful, expressive wines: ‘old school’ Burgundies at their finest. - Jason
