Domaine Jean-Michel Guillon, Clos Vougeot 2008 Napa Valley The Griotte is a mostFrom a Henri Jayer protg comes this exceptional Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru. Jean Michel Guillon apprenticed with the legendary Burgundy master before founding his domaine in Gevrey Chambertin in 1980. His approach is uncompromising: long, slow fermentations of 3 5 weeks, and 100% new French oakmaking Guillon one of Burgundy's largest buyers of new barrels after DRC and Hospices de Beaune. This 2008 has developed beautifully over 17 years. HVE Level 3
