GALLIMARD PÈRE ET FILS

LES RICEYS

Didier Gallimard owns 10 hectares of prime vineyards on the steep slopes around Les Riceys in the southern Aube. Didier’s son Arnaud has joined him, becoming the seventh generation, and the long-term future is now secure.

Their vines’ average age is over 30 years and the dramatically sloping vineyards, which are of chalk and Kimmeridgian limestone, are planted mainly to Pinot Noir and just a little Chardonnay. Their wines are full and rich and offer enticing aromas and flavours of summer fruits.

Their delicious Rosé is a blend of 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay and cascades with fresh, bright raspberry and strawberry flavours. ’Cuvée Quintessence’ is 100% Chardonnay, vinified for 6 months in two specially acquired 800ltr demi-muids. With 48 months sur-lattes prior to disgorgement and a dosage of just 5g/l, it is fine, elegant and precise. ’Cuvée Amphoressence’ is a blend of 50% Pinot Noir, 50% Chardonnay, aged for 24 months in four amphorae and bottled with no dosage. This is very fine and pure and rather serious.
