2011 French Wine

The venerable Burgundy house of Remoissenet was brought back to life by native Washingtonian Pierre Rovani, who put down his pen as Wine Advocate’s Burgundy critic to take up his dream of making great Burgundy in the Côte d'Or. A true believer in the quality potential of the Mâconnais, Pierre applies the same meticulous winemaking standards to his Mâcon as to his wines from the Côte d'Or. This wine is soft, juicy, and rich, with notes of apricot, peach, and yellow apple wrapped around the crisp, fresh acidity of the excellent 2011 vintage.
