Aromas of peach and white flowers introduce the 2018 Pernand-Vergelesses Blanc, a medium to full-bodied, pretty wine that's open, expressive and lively, concluding with a delicately chalky finish.

The 2014 Pernand Vergelesses Villages has a lifted grassy, citrus bouquet with a touch of peppermint. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, orange zest and dried pineapple coming through with a harmonious and lightly spiced finish, almond shavings over the finish. This is very fine.

The 2009 Pernand-Vergelesses is fresh, vibrant and very pure in its crystalline white stone fruits and flowers. It blossoms beautifully on the mid-palate and finish with layers of expressive fruit. This is one of the most tense of the 2009 Remoissenets, and it is totally classy from start to finish. Anticipated maturity: 2012+. This is a thrilling set of whites from Remoissenet. I have to say, I expected a little more when I tasted the 2009 reds from bottle earlier this year given the significant investments that have taken place here over the last few years. To be fair, though, I liked the 2008 reds I tasted better. But it is with these 2009 whites that the Remoissenet truly shows its potential. This is a fabulous lineup, notable for both its consistency throughout the range as well as for a number of ridiculously priced bargains. It seems pretty clear that winemaker Claudine Jobard has a special touch when it comes to whites. Readers should do whatever they can to check out the marvelous wines. Remoissenet began picking on September 20, very late by the standards of 2009. The wines are rich, ripe and sensual but not at all overdone. A number of the wines were aged partially or entirely in 350 liter barrels, which helped maintain an element of freshness. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to taste the 2010s as they were still in malo, but I did taste a handful of 2008s. Stylistically the Remoissenet wines (both white and red) tend towards the richer end of the spectrum.Importers: Simon N Cellars, Charlottesville, VA; tel.

Remoissenet's 2007 Pernand-Vergelesses – exhibit B in their value division, as it were, and a bottling new to them this vintage – is impressively dense, with stony, alkaline, pungently herbal, and faintly bitter fruit pit elements nicely integrated into a matrix of ripe peach and citrus fruits. Toasted nuts and the toast and spice of 20% new wood are likewise harmonious accommodated in a finish of vintage-typical generosity. I would plan on enjoying this over the next 3-4 years. The well-known if not always entirely venerable house of Remoissenet began a new life in 2005 when it was purchased by investors and wine lovers Edward and Howard Milstein of New York; merchant Todd Halpern of Toronto; and (with a minority share) Louis Jadot. The new owners installed Jadot veteran Bernard Repot as manager and Claudie Jobard as winemaker to oversee less a renovation of the facilities than the establishment from scratch of a new winery. With one major exception (Le Montrachet) the revived Remoissenet has depended on establishing new sources of supply, a project that – along with marketing – is being spearheaded by long-time Wine Advocate associate Pierre-Antoine Rovani. The emphasis will be on contract fruit or must – although Remoissenet still owns acreage of Pinot Noir vines in and around Beaune – and then very selectively. Remoissenet's substantial share of Montrachet alone offers them a unique opportunity not only to bargain with growers, but to establish a high market profile, and the quality of 2007s here – following on the heels of an impressively rich if occasionally overly woody and ponderous collection of 2006s – confirms this as a negociant to be reckoned with. The barrels used here, incidentally, are now split between 350 liter capacity and standard 225 liter barriques.Importers include The Sorting Table, Napa, CA; tel.
