About this wine
L'échanson was the cup-bearer at royal tables, the sommelier's ancestor, and the name fits a winemaker who came to the vines through the glass. Guillaume Boin trained with Domaine de Montille, Wasenhaus, Face B and Thierry Michon before his first official vintage in 2024. The Bourgogne Aligoté is made simply: hand-picked, carefully sourced grapes, gentle pressing, spontaneous fermentation, a short élevage and minimal sulfur.
Expect lemon zest, green apple and a chalky, saline snap, light-bodied and built for the aperitif: oysters, a plate of jambon persillé, a gougère. Drink now to 2027.
About Guillaume l'Echanson
Guillaume Boin fell for wine as a sommelier at La Tour d'Argent in Paris, between 2008 and 2010, and spent the next decade tasting his way around the world before crossing to the other side of the bottle. He learned vineyard and cellar work at Domaine de Montille in 2018, then harvests at Face B in Calce, Wasenhaus in Baden, Millton and Ash Ridge in New Zealand and Domaine Saint-Nicolas with Thierry Michon, and completed a diploma in organic viticulture in the Jura in 2021. His 2022 and 2023 wines were made at Vin Noé; 2024 is the first official vintage of Guillaume l'Echanson, vinified in a shared cellar in Chassagne-Montrachet. The name is the old French word for cup-bearer, the sommelier's ancestor.
