Benoit Cantin

At Benoit Cantin, generations of the Cantin family have succeeded one another at the estate: Auguste (1849-...), Edmond (1882-...), and Roger (1911-2000). Later, Bernard Cantin took over in 1961, and his son Benoît joined the estate in 1994. At the estate, Benoit and Felicien Cantin work together to produce the wine.

The estate is located in the Irancy appellation, and the family farm covers a total of 16 hectares. The vineyard is situated on Kimmeridgian clay-limestone soils, facing south, south-east, and south-west. The planting density is 6,500 vines per hectare, with yields of approximately 45 hl/ha. Grapes are harvested manually and sorted, and the wines are bottled after 18 months of aging, including one year in oak barrels.
