Founders Flavie and Arsène relocated from Paris to raise their family, acquiring outbuildings and vineyards and ultimately establishing the domaine in 1920. Originally known as Domaine Arsène Amiot, the estate quickly distinguished itself through its early commitment to estate bottling—an uncommon practice at the time when many growers sold wine in bulk. The distinctive bottles became easily recognizable to clientele, helping to build a dedicated direct-sales network and laying the foundation for a long-standing winemaking tradition. By the late 1980s, under the leadership of the founder’s grandson Guy, the domaine entered a new era. A trained oenologist, he produced notable vintages, expanded international trade, and significantly elevated the estate’s global reputation. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCovering less than eight hectares and shared among just 17 producers, Montrachet stands as one of Burgundy’s most coveted and prestigious Grand Cru vineyards. The Amiot family farms two tiny micro-plots within this legendary climat, ideally positioned on steep, south-facing slopes and planted in the 1920s on stony soils that naturally limit yields and produce tiny, intensely concentrated berries. So dramatic is the incline that the vineyard has never been worked by tractor, with every vine tended entirely by hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine opens with a rich, honeyed bouquet layered with toasted nuances and remarkable ripeness. Powerful yet impeccably balanced, the palate reveals concentrated flavours of orange marmalade, citrus, marzipan, honeysuckle, delicate spice, and creamy custard, all supported by vibrant acidity that brings lift, precision, and extraordinary length. This singular terroir demands exceptional dedication from those entrusted with its stewardship, and the result is a wine that captures the very essence of great white Burgundy. Produced in extremely limited quantities and passed down through generations of expertise, this exceptional Montrachet is a true gift of nature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nicholas Pearce Wines Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47970682601690,"sku":"L51915-1","price":6764.85,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0420\/7922\/3966\/files\/LCBORetailReleases_60_9c7b57ba-5b3a-4538-bc3c-4470cf820232.png?v=1781041116","url":"https:\/\/www.npwines.com\/products\/guy-amiot-et-fils-grand-cru-le-montrachet","provider":"Nicholas Pearce Wines Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
