2023 Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice, Domaine Antonin Guyon

Gevrey-Chambertin, Burgundy, France

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.

  • Producer Information

A true family estate and one of the quiet stars of the Côte d’Or, Domaine Antonin Guyon stands for elegance, integrity and classic Burgundian craft. Founded in the 1960s by Antonin Guyon, who began by purchasing small, fragmented vineyard parcels across the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits, the domaine now spans over 40 hectares of prime terroir, from Gevrey-Chambertin in the north to Meursault and Pernand-Vergelesses in the south.

Today, the estate is run by Antonin’s sons, Dominique and Michel Guyon, who have carried forward their father’s meticulous, terroir-first philosophy. Every parcel is hand-harvested, vinified separately, and treated with the kind of care more often reserved for Grand Cru vineyards. Sustainable viticulture and minimal intervention in the cellar ensure that each cuvée expresses its site with clarity and finesse.

In the cellar beneath their historic home in Savigny-lès-Beaune, the Guyon family employs traditional Burgundian methods: gentle pressing, fermentation with native yeasts, and élevage in carefully selected French oak barrels (20–30% new, depending on the cuvée). The wines are renowned for their precision, balance and purity, supple reds that highlight Pinot Noir’s perfume and structure, and luminous whites that reflect the mineral brilliance of the Côte de Beaune’s limestone soils.

From their village bottlings to their distinguished Premier Crus such as Pernand-Vergelesses Sous Frétille and Volnay Clos des Chênes, Domaine Antonin Guyon continues to embody everything that defines great Burgundy: quiet confidence, craftsmanship across generations, and a deep respect for the character of place.
