Pernand-Vergelesses

1er Cru Fichots

It is the name of the former owner.

The 2022 vintage brought serenity back to the vineyard with a heathy harvest and correct volumes. With rainfall accumulations far from excessive, the year 2022 was marked by average temperatures higher than seasonal norms and rainfall deficits from the start of the vine’s vegetative cycle. At the beginning of April, episodes of frost will recall the terrible nights of April 6 and 7 of 2021, but fortunately with an impact beyond measure. The year 2022 is the year of all records for sunshine with the equivalent of an additional month of July.

Vineyard

Below Corton Grand Cru A.O.C., this terroir, facing almost North-West and turning one's back on Corton- Charlemagne, grows on shallow clayey and limestone soils. It characterizes specifically the style of Pernand-Vergelesses with overtones of fruits, spices and character.
