The wine region of Pernand-Vergelesses
Discreet Côte de Beaune village in the valley between Aloxe-Corton and Savigny: Pinot Noir reigns in red — deep ruby with bluish glints, signature notes of strawberry, raspberry, violet evolving to spice, undergrowth and leather, firm muscular palate with integrated tannins. Refined Chardonnay rules the whites (western slope of Corton): white flowers, honey, amber and an austere stony mineral signature. AOC (1936), ~150 ha evenly split, clay-limestone at 300 m.
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Cryptogamic
