J.M. Gremillet
Champagne Gremillet are a small, but beautifully formed family-owned Champagne house, situated in the far south of the Champagne district in Balnot Sur Laignes, near the town of Les Riceys. Due to its southern latitude the grapes achieve greater ripeness which leads to a richer fruit and classic baked-biscuit flavours mixed with characteristic toasty yeast overtones.
Boutinot have worked with the Gremillet family since 1996. In 2002 the family invested nearly one million euros in the property, mainly in the cuveree but also added a heated indoor swimming pool alongside their offices, a banqueting hall and (would you believe?) installed a nightclub underneath their property !!
Gremillet own approx 18ha of vines and buy grapes on 25-30 year contracts from growers in another 7ha. Approximately 80% of their grapes are Pinot Noir and only 20% are Chardonnay.Their annual production is approx 300,000 bottles (all sold in bottle, none sold as bulk wine). Approx 65% of their production is exported to over 80 countries (mainly into the French Embassies in old French colonial countries). |
