Domaine REMORIQUET - Nuits Saint Georges - Les Allots 2014
Domaine Remoriquet is located in Nuits-Saint-Georges, in the Côte de Nuits, in Burgundy. It has been owned by Gilles Remoriquet since 1979, an oenologist who graduated from the University of Dijon who took over the family estate. The ten-hectare vineyard is mainly cultivated in Pinot Noir, with a small proportion of Chardonnay and produces wines in the famous appellations of Nuits-Saint-Georges, Vosne-Romanée, Hautes-Côtes de Nuits. The Coteaux Bourguignons appellation, created in 2011, spreads over 4 departments (Yonne, Côte-d´Or, Saône-et-Loire and Rhône). Gilles Remoriquet respects the Burgundian model of wine-growing traditions: ploughing, limited yields, manual harvest and aging in barrels.
Les Allots comes from a Pinot Noir plot of 0.83 hectares with the age of the vines varying between 30 and 60 years. The wine is aged in barrels for 15 to 18 months, 25% of which are new.
Grape variety: 100% Pinot Noir
