Domaine Glantenet

Glantenet in cellar

The Glantenet family has been present in the village of Magny les Villers since the 15th century.  The picturesque village which straddles the Cotes du Nuits and the Cotes de Beaune.  In 1961 the family pivoted towards viticulture, planting vines in Pernand-Vergelesses, Villers la Faye and Magny les Villers.  Jean-François took over the reigns from his father in 2009. Plant materials is from the 1960’s, with strenuous work in the vineyards, and a very genteel approach in the cellars.
