This Pernand-Vergelesses is elegant and supple, offering very pretty, pure and floral aromas with red and blackcurrant, later evolving into subtle underbrush and forest floor notes with touches of vanilla. A true gourmet wine and great with roast beef, lamb or duck and some mature cheeses.

Nestled in a tranquil, green valley at the foot of the Corton hill, the vineyard of Pernand-Vergelesses sits gracefully between the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune. Unique in Burgundy, it is the only appellation producing an equal share of red and white wines, showcasing the full spectrum of crus.

Their goal is to craft expressive, fruit-forward reds with well-integrated tannins—hallmarks of optimally ripened grapes. Harvested by hand and transported in small crates to avoid damage, the grapes are meticulously sorted upon arrival. Fermentation lasts about 15 days with regular pigeage (cap punching), allowing the wine to fully absorb colour and flavour from the skins. Ageing takes place in oak barrels, 20% of which are new, and racking is done using a traditional bellow, avoiding pumps to minimize disturbance. These careful techniques preserve the wine’s natural richness and character.
