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.

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.
