Domaine Michel Gaunoux
About Domaine Michel Gaunoux
A family estate that comes “warmly recommended” by Burgundy expert William Kelley (Wine Advocate), Domaine Michel Gaunoux remains one of “the region’s best-kept secrets”, producing “formidably structured wines” (WA) of which lovers of traditionally styled red Burgundy should take note.
The tiny 10 ha Domaine Michel Gaunoux comprises parcels in the "Corton Les Renardes" Grand Cru and several superb Pommard Premier Cru plots. The Domaine was founded by the Gaunoux family in 1885 and is now managed by Alexandre Gaunoux. Unique in that their wines can only be purchased post-bottling, much like Château Latour, they only release wines when they are deemed ready. Winemaking methods here are also very traditional, with late harvests, natural yeasts and ageing with minimal new oak.

Wine Advocate (96)The 1999 Pommard 1er Cru Les Grands Epenots is a stunning young wine that is still a decade away from full maturity but is already giving the full measure of its potential, exhibiting a superb bouquet of dark chocolate, ripe wild berries, rich soil, summer truffles and grilled ceps. On the palate, it's full-bodied, multidimensional and concentrated, with incredible depth and dimension at the core, framed by rich structuring tannins and concluding with a long and still youthfully chewy finish. This is the most powerful and broadest shouldered wine in this vertical of Grands Epenots, and it's a magical bottle in the making. |
