With a long, cool summer that promoted even ripening and ample hangtime, the 2010 growing season proved excellent for Burgundian varietals. In broad strokes, there is beautiful freshness to this wine, with clearly delineated vineyard character. At the same time, the modest crop size in 2010 has contributed to amazing concentration, spotlighting notes of spiced tropical peach, pear, honeydew, clove and narcissus. The mid-palate is vibrant and bright, combining delicate, mouthwatering acidity with rich fruit, all surrounded by subtle, oak-inspired notes of cinnamon, spiced toffee and roasted almonds.

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.
