Domaine des Remizières - Cuvée Emilie blanc 2019
96/100
Robert Parker
“A superb wine, the 2019 Cuvée Hermitage Emilie Blanc—made almost entirely from Marsanne grapes grown in the Maison Blanche vineyard—displays aromas of crushed stone, pencil shavings, and ripe melon. Full-bodied, expansive, and velvety on the palate, it showcases the power of white Hermitage without being overwhelming, and it finishes long, with robust notes of licorice that add a refreshing touch. Drink it now or lay it down for a decade and enjoy it from 2031 to 2040.” (Wine Advocate 2021)

Rated estate (2021 guide) 2*Stars (A solid, recommendable vintage, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
Philippe Desmeure and his daughter Émilie have successfully expanded this family estate to 30 hectares of vineyards. The winemaking process and aging in oak result in wines that are typically smooth on the palate. The estate consistently produces high-quality wines in both red and white, vintage after vintage. The 2017 vintage is particularly good.
Guide Hachette des vins
Rated estate (2023 guide) Award-winning wines (This producer’s wines are regularly recognized by the guide)
About the estate:
Until 1973, Alphonse Desmeure brought his harvest to the cooperative. His son Philippe began developing the estate in 1977, shifted production to bottled wine, and expanded the vineyard, which now covers 36 hectares spread across several municipalities. His children, Émilie and Christophe, have joined the estate. A must-try producer, offering wines of rare consistency.
