Remoissenet Père et Fils was founded in Burgundy in 1877 and was established in a 14thcentury building in Beaune. In recent years, the company was run by larger-than-life Roland Remoissenet for around 30 years, before it was sold and taken over by a consortium including the Milstein brothers from the USA, Halpern Enterprises of Toronto and Louis Jadot, with Bernard Répolt, a veteran of managing several other Beaune houses, in charge. The business is on the lookout for vineyards to acquire.
