2001 Domaine Rollin Père & Fils Pernand-Vergelesses Ile des Vergelesses 1er Cru

Illustrates well, next to the Sous le Bois de N”el et Ses Belles Filles, the need for higher appellations and more intensity of fruit in this vintage. (cask sample)

Denser, richer and earthier with the best aromatic complexity in the range today plus flavors that deliver outstanding harmony and overall balance. Delicious, racy and quite fine with plenty of minerality all held together by bright acidity and excellent persistence. I very much like the style of this.
