Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

Saint Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly is just above and west of the Grand Crus of Puligny-Montrachet at the summit of the same hillside. With very good exposure (southwestern), this slope has been planted in Chardonnay for 20 years, and is now regaining its former place long after the devastation of phylloxera.

Over the years, the intensity of these wines has grown to such an extent that they equal certain Pulignys. One finds hints of almonds, cinnamon, spices and beeswax with a fine, elegant structure. Remilly is certainly an excellent value on the wine market today.

Olivier Leflaive was formed in 1984 by Olivier and his brother Patrick. Unlike a conventional negociant who buys finished wines, the firm actually vinifies a wide range of Burgundian appellations from grapes and must (or juice) and now owns 25 acres. Under the supervision of winemaker Franck Grux, the wines are vinified, blended, and aged exactly as they would be at a top-rank domaine.
