Domaine Goisot Biodynamic Burgundy

“No one but no one delivers more quality for the price than Goisot. The quality is flat out amazing, particularly given the modest appellations with which he works.”  Allen Meadows, Burghound, 2011.

“Simply stunning...here, surely, is one of the greatest Domaines of the Yonne...” Le Grand Guide des Vins de France, 2011.

  • Below we offer the coveted and remarkably priced new vintages from the ‘Pope of St Bris’.

In this case they will find a great deal of both. These are textural yet racy wines with a rich, stony complexity that speaks loudly of the chalky soils of the greater Chablis area. Think of everything you would want from a great Chablis producer (i.e, more suppleness, complexity and less austerity) and you will be on the right track.

Like all of France’s greatest winegrowers, father Jean-Hugues and son Guilhem work tirelessly in their vineyards to produce the highest standards of grapes possible. The vineyards are planted to 10,000 vines per acre, roughly twice the regional norm. They also employ more than twice the staff members per hectare. Goisot has one person per two and a half hectares, compared to the six... learn more
