Remi has just over 7 hectares of vines in and around Morey-St.Denis. The vines are much older than average, with all of his Vieilles Vignes village bottlings being at least 50 years old, and the Morey St Denis over 60. This gives a natural concentration to the wines which are both well structured and elegant. Remi is a firm believer that wines are made in the vineyard and this shows through in the pure, concentrated style of the wines and the cautious use of new oak.
The grapes are partially destemmed and then cold-pressed before fermen-tation and put into stainless steel tanks for two weeks. The grapes are then pressed pneumatically. Aged in oak barrels (20% new) for 12 months.
