Champagne Bernard Remy Blanc de Noirs

Special Price $100.00 Regular Price $120.00
A powerful and youthful expression of Pinot Noir. The House style tends towards long ageing on lees, but here, that time is cut to just 18 months to allow the power and texture of their superb Pinot to shine. Rich and powerful with plentiful red fruits, quince and pear, this is an excellent match for duck dishes.

Nearly 50 years ago Bernard Remy bought his first vineyard in Champagne. Though the House has expanded greatly since then it remains a tiny producer, making just 15000 cases a year. They have a range of vineyards in the famed Côte Des Blancs, including Le Mesnil which is considered to be close to, perhaps the best sub region of Champagne. These are exquisite wines full of delicacy, creaminess and life.

On the road in Champers Matt spent a fair whack of time at Bernard Remy. Here’s Matt having a glass with winemaker Rudy and Rudy filling a glass... even winemakers can’t pour straight! Check out the vid too as Remy and Virginie explain riddling, disgorgement and adding the secret Liqueur d’expedition. Champagne starts its life as a normal, still wine but the ageing on lees (dead yeast cells) and the final addition of liqueur, generally made from a blend of aged reserve wines and a little sugar transform it from the ordinary into something special. Wineries like Bernard Remy who start with much higher than average quality fruit start at special and work their way into magical territory.

After quality of fruit, the time the wine spends on lees in the bottle makes a biggest difference to the finished product. The minimum period on lees required for a wine to be called Champagne is 15 months. Moet

Fun times at Bernard Remy, who had a new wine, Blanc De Noir, 100% Pinot Noir and bloody delicious... pic of a bottle which has quietly been sitting on lees (the dead yeast) for about 4 years, getting tastier and tastier... won't be long before it's time to riddle the bottle, wave goodbye to the yeast and whack a label on it.
