Pernard-Vergelesses

This red wine presents a fresh aroma of black cherry and raspberry on the nose. It has a medium body and showcases the characteristic rusticity often found in Pernand red wines. The finish is marked by crunchy fresh cherries and displays good length. The plots for this wine are situated at the bottom of the hill of Pernand, with a few of them classified as Premier Cru, specifically in the climat of "Les Fichots". The soil composition consists of clay and limestone, with deep soil featuring red clay. The vineyard covers an area of 1.4 hectares, and the average age of the vines is 30 years. The harvest is done manually with careful sorting. The vinification process involves 100% destemming and traditional vinification in thermoregulated stainless steel vats, with a vatting period of 15 days. Maturation occurs for 12 to 15 months, partly in oak barrels and stainless steel tanks, including 15% new oak. ABV 13.5
