The Gentleman of Gevrey.

Polished, poised and quietly powerful, the 2023 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice from Domaine Antonin Guyon is a beautifully composed expression of this revered terroir. Deep garnet in the glass, it opens with classic Gevrey aromatics of black cherry, wild raspberry and plum, layered with hints of spice, cedar, and the faintest trace of smoked earth. The palate is elegant yet firm, with ripe red and dark fruit wrapped around fine, chalky tannins and a cool mineral spine. Subtle oak adds warmth and polish without overshadowing the fruit's purity. The finish is long, savoury and textural, lingering with notes of cocoa, crushed rock and spice. It’s a wine of quiet authority, graceful, grounded, and unmistakably Gevrey.

For when: you want depth and detail in perfect balance.
Pairs with: roast pigeon, beef bourguignon, or truffled mushroom dishes.
If this wine were a character, it’d be the classic French hero, understated, confident, and effortlessly refined.

Domaine Antonin Guyon, based in Savigny-lès-Beaune, is one of Burgundy’s most admired family domaines, renowned for its precision and purity across a patchwork of Côte d’Or vineyards. Founded in the 1960s by Antonin Guyon and now led by his sons Dominique and Michel, the estate farms over 40 hectares, crafting wines that balance restraint and richness with finesse.

The La Justice vineyard lies on the gentle lower slopes just below the village of Gevrey-Chambertin, where lighter, gravelly soils produce wines noted for their approachability and refined structure. The 2023 vintage, hand-harvested, traditionally vinified and aged for around 15 months in French oak (roughly 30% new), delivers the signature Guyon touch: supple fruit, mineral precision and effortless harmony. A wine that speaks softly but leaves a lasting impression, the essence of modern Gevrey elegance.
