Rémi's négociant Bourgogne is from vines and the bottom of Puligny, and the Mâconnais. Fat: not the precision of the domaine wine, of course, but it's hard to argue; the richness and the fin...(read more)

Quite a forward and aromatic nose, palate is sweet, fat and showing some rocky mineral - very straight and attractive.

Rich and ripe, giving fine volume and even a touch of sweetness to the fruit, all lifted by citrussy acidity. Very much a baby Meursault.

Rémi gave us this to taste after the Volnay Santenots and you can see why - it has a greater density and earthy grip - but the precision of the aromas and the thick feel are no so far away. Lots of whole bunches i...(read more)

This has a lovely little subtle sweetness. Really juicy with mineral underpinnings, and the intensity of the acidity of 2020 making it citrussy and fresh.

80% whole bunch fermentation, The sheer minerality in this means that it is not yet as showy on the nose as it was in 2019, but otherwise it's a very similar style, with a bright but not all that dark colour, a slow move...(read more)

Richer yet than the 'sous la Velle', the En Luraule, from a site next to Premier Cru Goutte d'Or, is full of the scent and flesh of ripe yellow fruit, feeling like the expression of a sunny site, and seems very concentra...(read more)

Again there's terrific volume on the front, giving a sleek feel, and as usual there's the driving mineral making a long shining arc through the palate. Fine and long.

A 'quiet' gentle nose with a scent not unlike oatmeal. More refined that the Narvaux, it's all about tension and length, with a very citrussy acidity giving prodigious length.

Tasted after all the series of the 2021s, this is a disconcerting change of register, but it's fabulous. Richly mouthcoating, it remains gloriously fresh despite a core of sweet-tasting concentration. Long and straight a...(read more)

As so often, the Poruzots is tightly-packed and dense and powerful. Hard to read in its youth, but in the end it always finds the same level of expressiveness as the other Premiers Crus.

A sweet edge to the attack here, juice like the Luraule follows, and here there's more power and mineral intensity. Sherbety, mineral, sleek and long.

Just as much as the Poruzot is compact at this stage, the Genevrières is almost opulent, generous and suave, even showy. Punch and power on the finish.

Rémi continues to experiment with longer élevages, this wine being kept an extra year in wood - it will be fined and filtered in December 2022 for bottling in January. It's a huge and slow-moving...(read more)
