Producer Information

The story of the Rmy familys history in Champagne began in 1829 after acquiring their first vines in the grand cru village of Bouzy in Montagne de Reims. After WWII in 1950, Georges Rmys grandfather stopped selling his grapes and began to produce the wines himself. This would only last for a generation as Georgess father decided his love was in the vines and in 1989 decided to no longer produce his own wine. Things changed again for the family after Georges acquired a Viticulture Oenology BTS certificate from Avize and work experience in Bordeaux as he returned home to assist his father in the vines. With his fathers guidance and a passion for working the vines, Georges assisted his father both in their vineyards and as as a vineyard consultant for other wine growers. During this time he also experimented with the production of still red wine from a small parcel of well maturing old vine pinot noir. Impressed by their sons Bouzy rouge attempts and hoping to support the love Georges developed for making still red wine while in Bordeaux, in 2011 Georges parents offered him a 0.15 hectare parcel of pinot noir in lieu-dit Les Vaudayants planted by slection massale in 1975. From this parcel Georges produced a still red wine which he sold commercially, thus launching the third generation of the Rmy familys history of grape growing and champagne production. It wasnt until the 2014 harvest that Georges began producing sparkling wine.
