A beam of bright cherry leads the way for this supple red, gathering currant, strawberry, floral and spice notes as it evolves on the palate. Wood tannins add a lightly chewy feel to the delicate finish. Best from 2023 through 2035. 338 cases made, 50 cases imported.

Varietal

Pinot Noir

Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.

Interestingly, Cote De Beaune produces more red wine than white wine, despite its white wines being so famous. The red wines of Cote De Beaune are mainly made from Pinot Noir, but are relatively very light and fruity in their character, perfect for sipping on a warm, sunny day alongside a wide range of foods.

The 2018 Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru Les Vergelesses offers up scents of sweet red berries, smoke, peonies, dark chocolate and rich soil tones, followed by a medium to full-bodied, layered and lively palate that's bright and charming, concluding with a long finish. This has turned out very nicely.

Burghound

This is at once fresher and cooler with its airy nose of intensely floral-suffused aromas of red and dark raspberry. There is even better vibrancy to the detailed and stony middle weight flavors that also possess good depth and persistence on the finish that flashes a similar hint of sweetness.

Vinous Media

The 2018 Pernand-Vergelesses Les Vergelesses 1er Cru comes from a single parcel on red clayey soils. It has an ample bouquet of black cherries mixed with cranberry and hints of fig, nicely defined with impressive intensity. The palate is medium-bodied with gentle grip on the entry. Quite a dense Pernand-Vergelesses, this, with a saline and black-olive-tinged finish that lingers nicely in the mouth. Very fine.

Winery Notes

Many argue that Île des Vergelesses should be classified as a Grand Cru. It's true that in the best years, with it's eastern exposure and mid-slope location, it behaves as a Grand Cru. Chandon de Briailles has a healthy three hectares planted to pinot noir, located in an area with a nice slope, and a good mix of clay and limestone. It's safe to say that Île along with Bressandes are the flagship wines of the domaine. In 2018, 70% of whole clusters were kept and half were removed halfway through the fermentation. Aged mostly in neutral barrels, with 15% new oak. When tasted out of barrel in 2019, it had very pretty fruit, was super elegant, and the structure felt very well integrated with the tannins perfectly in the background.
