Chassagne Montrachet

Chassagne Montrachet wines come from a small commune in the French region of Burgundy. Chassagne Montrachet is part of the arrondissement of Beaune. The village is best known for its excellent vineyards. The most famous wine from Chassagne Montrachet comes from the grand cru Le Montrachet vineyards.

Domaine Remoissenet Pere & Fils

has more than a century of wine history in Burgundy, France and is one of the richest estates in Beaune. Established in 1877 in a 14th-century building in Beaune, the estate is best known for its grand and distinguished Cru Chardonnay and Pinot Noir .

Remoissenet Père et Fils owns 13 hectares (32 acres) of vineyards in Beaune and Gevrey-Chambertin. The estate also buys fruit from growers, but by quality, not quantity, with bonuses offered if quality exceeds expectations. Grand cru wines, both white and red, can see up to 100 percent new French oak during the aging process, and reds are not fined or filtered.

In 2005, Maison Remoissenet sold Père et Fils to a group that included New York financier Edward Millstein, Toronto's Todd Halpern and Maison Louis Jadot , when Roland Remoissenet retired at age 75. The sale included the company, the vineyards, the famous cellar and everything in it, including old vintages of grand cru wines such as Montrachet and Bâtard-Montrachet

Former president of Louis Jadot , Bernard Répolt, leads the consortium of owners of Remoissenet Père et Fils and has expanded production and received positive press for the increased quality of the wines produced.
