This is an introduction into Remi’s wines and a closer look shows that this was fermented using natural yeasts in 85% stainless (remainder in older oak), with full malo and then three years on lees. All his wines are bottled unfined and unfiltered.

What to Expect

- New arrival on Emperor Champagne!

- Boutique Champagne house in the Côte des Bar

- Vibrant and clean style of extra brut that has plenty to offer

Expect notes of almond, citron biscuit and red cherry which then switches to a core of green apple freshness. We love the beautiful balance and finesse here. Rémi has quickly become one of the top vignerons to watch in Champagne and we are delighted to have him as part of the Emperor offering.

About the House

The terroir is exceptional, composed of clay-limestone from the Jurassic period. Their flagship grape is Pinot Noir (72% of their vineyards) which is the star grape in the region, the rest being 20% Chardonnay and 8% Pinot Meunier. Remi and his father and working on replanting Chardonnay to give more diversity to their winemaking. Their wines are simply superb and speak for themselves.
