Pre-Arrival Offer

The new state of the art and environmentally credible Amiot-Servelle cellar is based in Chambolle-Musigny, across the road from the great site of 1er Les Cras and adjacent to Derriere la Grange. It's been designed to optimize and make easier the best winemaking practices (e.g. cool rooms for grapes next to the crusher pad, gravity flow optimization, clean and "easy to clean" floors and surfaces and a relatively spacious work area. Advanced heating / cooling and insulation properties and water collection and saving initiatives that are commendable. Individually TCA (cork taint) - tested corks are used here.
Sister-brother team Prune and Antoine believe that the organics (started in 2003) are now really paying dividends in quality, perfect ripeness at slightly lower alcohols and more even-ripening with improved, more complex and deeper flavors.
The 2024 vintage - Precision born from adversity
The 2024 vintage in Burgundy will be remembered as one of the most challenging of recent decades. Persistent spring rains, severe mildew pressure and dramatically reduced yields tested even the most experienced growers. Yet, as is often the case in Burgundy, difficult vintages reward the most meticulous vignerons. The finest wines are not defined by power, but by precision, freshness and transparency of terroir.
Few estates were better positioned to meet these challenges than Domaine Amiot-Servelle. Long committed to organic farming and rigorous vineyard work, Prune Amiot and her team were able to preserve both fruit quality and vineyard expression despite the season's difficulties. Production is significantly lower than in 2023, making allocations particularly scarce.
The resulting wines capture the essence of Chambolle-Musigny: vibrant red fruit, floral aromatics, silky textures and remarkable purity. Rather than the richness of recent warm vintages, the 2024s offer a more classical profile, defined by energy, balance and elegance. For Burgundy lovers, they evoke the charm and finesse of traditional Côte de Nuits Pinot Noir.
With some of the smallest crops seen in decades and demand for top Burgundy remaining exceptionally strong, Amiot-Servelle 2024 represents both a rare and highly compelling opportunity for collectors seeking wines of authenticity, finesse and place.
