Honeysuckle, lily, and chalk dust mark the nose of Remoissenet's 2007 Puligny-Montrachet Les Perrieres. As befits its name, this is persistently stony, with a firmer feel and less overt sweetness of fruit than the other wines in this collection. At the same time there is a refinement of texture and a sense of seamlessness here that are singular in that same context. Restrained peach and pear with hauntingly persistent liquid floral perfume underlain by crushed stone make for an absorbing and soothing yet buoyant and refreshing finish. My suspicion is that this will be worth following for 5-7 years. The well-known if not always entirely venerable house of Remoissenet began a new life in 2005 when it was purchased by investors and wine lovers Edward and Howard Milstein of New York; merchant Todd Halpern of Toronto; and (with a minority share) Louis Jadot. The new owners installed Jadot veteran Bernard Repot as manager and Claudie Jobard as winemaker to oversee less a renovation of the facilities than the establishment from scratch of a new winery. With one major exception (Le Montrachet) the revived Remoissenet has depended on establishing new sources of supply, a project that – along with marketing – is being spearheaded by long-time Wine Advocate associate Pierre-Antoine Rovani. The emphasis will be on contract fruit or must – although Remoissenet still owns acreage of Pinot Noir vines in and around Beaune – and then very selectively. Remoissenet's substantial share of Montrachet alone offers them a unique opportunity not only to bargain with growers, but to establish a high market profile, and the quality of 2007s here – following on the heels of an impressively rich if occasionally overly woody and ponderous collection of 2006s – confirms this as a negociant to be reckoned with. The barrels used here, incidentally, are now split between 350 liter capacity and standard 225 liter barriques. Importers include The Sorting Table, Napa, CA; tel.
