GLANTENAY THIERRY

Domaine Bernard et Thierry Glantenay is located in the heart of winegrowing Burgundy. Above all, it's a family story that has lasted for over four centuries. In 2005, Thierry Glantenay returned to help his brother Bernard. Together, they manage the estate with the greatest respect for family traditions.

Thierry Glantenay cultivates the entire estate according to organic principles, without claiming any certification. The grapes are harvested by hand, in small 10 kg crates, to preserve their integrity. The estate uses a vibrating sorting table and cools the grapes before vatting. Native yeasts are used for fermentation, and the wines are aged and bottled without fining or filtration.

Geographical location of Domaine Bernard et Thierry Glantenay

Domaine Bernard et Thierry Glantenay is located in Volnay, Burgundy, 5 kilometers southwest of Beaune. The 7.5-hectare vineyard also extends to Pommard and Puligny-Montrachet in the Côte-d'Or. The Volnay appellation lies on limestone and clay soil. The vines of Domaine Bernard et Thierry Glantenay benefit from a temperate, continental climate. Frosts are rare in autumn, allowing the harvest to be carried out late, when the grapes are fully ripe. The estate uses Guyot-Poussard pruning, with high manual trimming to limit compaction. The average age of the estate's vines is very high, contributing to the exceptional quality of the grapes.

Domaine Bernard et Thierry Glantenay wines

Volnay appellation wines are red wines made from Pinot Noir grapes. The Volnay Vieilles Vignes cuvée contains between 20% and 25% of 1er Cru replié (en l'Ormeau and Dessus des Lurets). Two Pommard appellations and three Volnay appellations from Domaine Bernard et Thierry Glantenay are Premiers Crus. Volnay reds are often described as the most feminine wines in Burgundy winegrowing. These red wines from the Côte de Beaune can be cellared for several years before tasting. Bernard and Thierry Glantenay also produce a Premier Cru white wine in the Puligny-Montrachet appellation. This white Burgundy wine is made exclusively from Chardonnay.
