Antoine Olivier is a historic name rooted in the heart of Burgundy, one of the world’s most revered wine regions and a landscape synonymous with terroir, tradition, and meticulous craftsmanship. Established in the 19th century and based in Santenay, the domaine has grown from modest family origins into a respected guardian of classic Burgundian winemaking. Across generations, the Olivier family has remained committed to expressing the purity of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, allowing vineyard character and regional nuance to take centre stage.
Burgundy is a region where reputation is built not on scale, but on precision, patience, and intimate knowledge of the land. Antoine Olivier reflects this philosophy through careful vineyard stewardship and a deep respect for the subtle differences between appellations. Each parcel is treated as a distinct voice within a larger harmony, reinforcing the Burgundian belief that great wine is ultimately a conversation between soil, climate, and human care.
Located in the southern Côte de Beaune, Santenay has historically offered exceptional value and character, while neighbouring villages may command greater global fame, Santenay provides wines of depth, charm, and approachability, often revealing remarkable quality relative to prestige appellations further north. For drinkers seeking genuine regional expression and quiet authenticity, the domaine offers a compelling connection to the timeless craft of Burgundian winemaking.
