Domaine Remoissenet Père et Fils Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons 2022 Bouteille (75cl)
The 2022 Domaine Remoissenet Père et Fils Chablis 1er Cru Vaillons is a white Burgundy wine made from Chardonnay in the Chablis appellation. Classified as a Premier Cru, it comes from the Vaillons climat, located south-west of the village of Chablis with a south-easterly exposure. This area, one of the largest among the Chablis Premiers Crus, rests on Kimmeridgian limestone marl. The 2022 vintage thus combines the characteristic freshness of northern Chardonnay with a fuller expression, driven by a citrus framework and a mineral tone.

Histoire du domaine
Remoissenet Père et Fils was founded in Beaune in 1877 and established itself in a historic 14th-century building in the heart of the town. The company remained in the Remoissenet family until 2005. During the final decades of this period, Roland Remoissenet was at the helm. When he retired in 2005, the company, its cellars, stocks and vineyards were acquired by a group led by the American financier Edward L. Milstein. The reorganisation that followed included the appointment of Bernard Repolt as managing director and the arrival of oenologist Claudie Jobard ahead of the 2005 grape harvest. In 2008, the company reacquired plots in several Côte de Nuits appellations, including Gevrey-Chambertin, Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-Saint-Georges, Charmes-Chambertin and Clos de Vougeot. Remoissenet Père et Fils now operates as both a wine estate and a wine merchant, producing wine from grapes grown on its own vineyards as well as from grapes selected from partner growers. Recent legal filings identify Edward Milstein as the managing director of Remoissenet Père et Fils SCS, of which Remoissenet Holdings Ltd is the general partner.
Vaillons
Vaillons is a Premier Cru classified climat located on the left bank of the Serein, in the commune of Chablis. It constitutes a flagship climat to which seven other neighboring climats can be attached, the whole covering 129 hectares; this surface area therefore does not correspond solely to the cadastral locality of Vaillons. Situated in the upper part of the hillside and facing southeast, it mainly receives the morning sun. Its shallow soil features sticky clays above Kimmmeridgian limestones locally organized into compact slabs.

Histoire de la parcelle
The name is attested under the spelling "Valion" in a document from 1429. Vaillons is among the first climats on the left bank of the Serein classified as Premier Cru. The regulatory demarcation associates the Vaillons climat with the cadastral localities "Les Vaillons" and "Sur les Vaillons", section F2 of Chablis.
