2023 Pernand Vergelesses 1er Cru en Caradeux

Tasting notes:

This vineyard of 1.90 hectare is ideally located on mid-slope close to the hill of Corton-Charlemagne. Same soil structure and height as its famous neighbour. The only difference is the East exposure of the "Caradeux" which makes of this plot an exceptional "terroir" providing unique mineral characteristics. Refreshing and intense aromas of citrus fruit and pale fleshed fruit mixed with toasted bread on a hint of minerality. Well-balanced. Dense and tight texture. Long and refreshing finish.

Producer description:

The estate spreads over 45 hectares of exclusively Premier and Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte de Beaune and a further 50 ha of vineyards in the Côte Chalonnaise. Plot selection, yield control and short pruning are some of the strict rules followed in the vineyards to produce wines of the purest Burgundian spirit. The wines from Beaune will be certified organic from the 2024 vintage.
