Domaine Guillot Broux
The estate was created in 1954 by Pierre and Jeannine GUILLOT. In 1978 their son, Jean-Gérard Guillot, came back to Cruzille town with his wife and they created Domaine Guillot – Broux with only 1 hectar of vines. Today Emmanuel et Patrice Guillot, the third generation, is taking care of the family business.
Today the estate is composed of 17 hectares of vines situated in the three villages of Cruzille, Grévilly and Chardonnay, and have two appellations: Mâcon Cruzille and Mâcon Chardonnay. Most of the vineyards are on east-facing slopes on clayey limestone soil. The various geological formations give rise to different terroirs, resulting in strikingly different wines.
The domaine has been organic from the beginning, and has been certified organic since 1991. We plough, and use natural methods of fighting parasites, green manure, organic fertilisers (to feed the soil and not the vines), and mineral sprays with stable active molecules that leave no residues in the wines.

Elegant and full of charm, these white wines from the Pouilly-Fuissé appellation have a colour ranging from pale to deep gold, with green highlights. Different families of aromas make up the bouquet: mineral notes, almond and hazelnut, citrus, white fruit, lime and acacia, breadcrumbs, buttered brioche, honey. Finesse and distinction characterise the Pouilly-Fuissé appellation.
The aroma of rose flowers, including the nuances of red fruits, is further accentuated by the refined barrel aroma. A refreshing yet rounded mouthfeel reminiscent of moderately ripe and delicate fruits. The still slightly hard tannins, combined with the juicy mouthfeel, give a clear taste.
Les Renardières is a climat located in the commune of Cruzille.
Made using only the oldest Pinot Noir grapes owned by Domaine. Pommard grafts were planted in 1956.
Due to the extremely delicate and difficult strain, this cuvée is only produced in the year of Grand Vintage.

The Marc de Bourgogne is the result of distilling the residue (skins, pips and stalks) – known as marc – of pressed red grapes. This residue is usually distilled by the local still-man. The alcohol is then matured for at least 15 years before being bottled. As with all good spirits, the length of ageing is more important than the vintage, which is why we put the date of bottling on each bottle..
