Producer
Starting out with just over two hectares in 1980, Jean-Michel Guillon has single-mindedly built up his domaine to fourteen hectares today, including some particularly choice premier and grand cru parcels. Jean- Michel is unusual in his use of 100% new oak across the range, and yet with old vines, low yields and meticulous vinification, it is fruit that sings out above all here. His is a truly stunning – and well-priced – range.
Vineyard
Les Graviers is a south-facing vineyard within the commune of Chambolle-Musigny. As the name suggests, under the clay, the sub-soil is gravelly, providing superior drainage. Scrupulous husbandry and low yields are the key to Jean-Michel’s pristine, concentrated fruit.
Winery
The grapes were given a traditional, long fermentation before racking to new wood for twelve months’ maturation.
