Along with Domaine Claude Lafond, Denis Jamain's Domaine de Reuilly is the best domaine in this small revived appellation that came close to disappearing during the 1980s. Denis' grandmother bought the domaine in 1935. Denis took over the running of the domaine in the 1990s, expanding the vineyards to its current 21 hectares – 12ha Sauvignon Blanc, 5ha Pinot Noir and 4ha Pinot Gris. Most of the domaine has been organic since 2007 and the domaine is now biodynamic. Les Chatillons is 100% Pinot Gris, which is used in Reuilly to make a vin gris (pale rosé). Tasted in early February it had an attractive rich, spicy texture and good length with freshness on the finish. Bottled in mid-February.
