Remi Rollin are a classic estate in the Cote de Beaune area of Burgundy, They are a mid-sized family domain in their fourth generation, managing almost 14 hectares of vines in the Terre Vitis sustainability program. The Pernand-Vergelesses Blanc cuvée is situated on an east-facing hillside. The soils are clay-limestone, shallow and lying on white limestone marls. Chardonnay grapes are pressed slowly. After light settling, musts ferment naturally in oak barrels (of which 10% are new oak). Lees-stirring may or may not occur. Malolactic fermentation occurs naturally during winter. The wine stays on its lees for 10 to 12 months, before being racked and blended. The whites occasionally get clarified with bentonite clay, if they need it. Bottling is done in the domain.
