Domaine Poisot originates from the original Louis Latour estate. Domaine Poisot is now under the management of Rémi Poisot, the third great grandchild of Louis Latour, a former captain in the french navy. Rémi rejoined the family estate in September 2009, just in time for the vinification of the 2009 vintage – 2010 was the first vintage under his full management.


The domaine own almost 2 hectares of vineyards – mainly grand cru – including 1.5 hectares of Grand Cru -- 0.43 hectares Corton Bressandes, 0.57 hectares Corton Charlemagne and 0.49 hectares Romanee-Saint-Vivant. Rémi is also open to né goce opportunities if they arise; he has a little Saint Aubin 2011, for instance, but he notes that it is difficult to get sufficient grapes to do everything himself, so relies on getting must – so far.


In his vines, Rémi is very happy to be described as ‘très raisonée’ but he notes ‘as the conditions allow, but I use no herbicides or insecticides.’ He uses whole clusters in his fermentations. Afterwards he ages mainly in François Frè res barrels; 50% new wood is the target for his grand crus, but given his low volumes it can vary between 40 and 60%.
