The first impression on the nose is marked by great intensity. It is opening on biscuit, mature wheat, pear and cherry flavour. After a few seconds, the nose became wider. The iris, oak, celery, white pepper and fine mineral aromas bring depth and complexity to the wine. With air, melted butter and toast notes appear, reflecting an harmonious evolution of the wine.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1890
A family business for five generations, Vilmart is driven by unique intuition, a taste for precision and a certain form of freedom.

In 1890, Désiré Vilmart founded the house in the heart of the village of Rilly-la-Montagne, at the foot of the Montagne de Reims. He was succeeded by his son Charles, then his grandson Renan. They were both instrumental in furthering the house’s growth. Independence and boldness were already characteristic of the house’s outlook.

During the Second World War, Renan witnessed the destruction of the estate. With courage and determination, he applied himself to reconstructing buildings and facilities over cellars that had been spared; Vilmart still occupies these premises, which have been developed and added to by each successive generation.
