A family-owned estate now working 35 hectares of vines. The style here is modern, with a number of cuvées being generously oaked. Remizières was once known for its white wines, but now more for the reds. Owner Philippe Desmeures has now been joined by his daughter Emilie and son Christophe.

The nose is a touch muted here, closed in by reduction (i.e. it needs the oxygen afforded by a good racking). Yet in the mouth, a swell of rich, creamy cool fruit assaults the tongue and its reinforcement is the huge mineral grip that comes thereafter. Really straight and direct Hermitage; very intense and very concentrated. And yes, very, very mineral, too. Upright, big, very grippy tannins lead on to an earthen, mineral finish. Very fresh and really serious, as Hermitage should be!
All our wines are given a Sweetness Indicator from 1 to 5, with 1 being the driest and 5 being the sweetest.
This can be found for every wine under the Wine Details tab.
Most red wines are dry and therefore are indicated with a 1. The sweetness becomes more relevant with white wines, sparkling wines and pudding/dessert wines such as Sauternes and Tokaji.
