Remoriquet is considered as one of the top estates in Nuits, but the prices have yet to catch up!
Gilles is the fourth generation winemaker in the Remoriquet family and he not resting on his laurels but is striving to develop and improve upon the old winemaking methods of the estate. He has devised a new sorting system to weed out the under ripe grapes. He now favours concrete over stainless steel, for fermentation, because it is slower to heat and cool, lending greater control and consistency. And the maximum use of new oak is now 30%, to allow the purity of fruit to shine.
Gilles is progressive yet respectful of the wine making tradition, these wines are only likely to improve and the prices increase! Get them whilst you can.
Beautifully bright Pinot Noir. This is silky smooth, pretty and very drinkable already.
