WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process for the Jean-Claude Boisset Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Remilly 2022 begins with whole bunches being gently pressed. The must is then cooled and transferred to French oak barrels, including 450L demi-muids, for fermentation with indigenous yeasts. This fermentation is conducted over a long period to encourage complexity and freshness. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for approximately 17-18 months in French oak barrels, with a portion of new oak used and toasted at low temperatures for subtle oak integration. The wine is not fined but undergoes gentle filtration before bottling.
