Although the Georges Glantenay estate goes back five generations, their history as a estate-bottler of fine Burgundy is more recent. Prior to 2014 when the current generation, Brother-Sister team of Guillaume and Sarah Glantenay took over, most of the production was sold either as grapes or as wine in bulk. Since then, they have been progressively taking back their own production as contracts expire. The estate comprises some 10 HA of vines among 16 different appellations mostly in Volnay and Pommard but also some in Chambolle-Musigny from vineyards inherited from their grandmother’s family.

One of the unique and remarkable facts about the Domaine is that much of the family’s holdings have very old vines. Guillaume and Sarah’s grandfather, Georges, planted a good part of the vineyards in the 50’s and 60’s. So today, the average vine age for the Domaine is over 60 years! 

A bright color, a fresh and elegant nose. Its aromas evoke violets and small red fruits. Over time, notes of ripe fruit develop, with subtle toasted and roasted nuances. The fine and elegant tannins bring a beautiful sensation of roundness and velvety texture. The acidity offers freshness to this ample and distinguished wine.
