Maison Remoissenet Père & Fils was founded at the beginning of the 20th century by Pierre Alfred Remoissenet. In 2004, his great grandson, Roland Remoissenet, decided to hand it over and sold the domaine to Eddy & Howard Milstein, New York bankers and wine collectors. The latter then entrusted the general management to Bernard Repolt, a HEC business school graduate who had previously managed Maison Jadot, the son of doctors from Beaune. There he produces high quality wines which are precise, concentrated, reflect their soil and which are blessed with supple tannins and fine balance.

This cuvée comes from the Les Charmes climat located in the village of Chassagne-Montrachet in Côte de Beaune. The soil is composed of limestone marl and stones, giving the wine a fine minerality. After being hand-harvested, the grapes are delicately pressed to get a pure juice while avoiding excessive extraction of tannins and phenolic compounds. Fermentation takes place traditionally in oak barrels, sometimes using indigenous yeasts to conserve the wine’s authenticity. Ageing takes place in French oak barrels for around 12-18 months, depending on the characteristics of the vintage. The barrels used are often new or have been used several times before which gives a subtle balance of woody aromas.
This combination unveils aromas of white fruits and flowers, particularly pear, peach, apples and citrus fruits. It presents a balanced acidity, a smooth texture and a long finish. This wine would pair perfectly with refined dishes with fish, poultry, mushrooms or creamy sauces.
