Pernand-Vergelesses
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.

Tasting note
This wine has a very nice balance, a certain freshness with a nice intensity on the nose. In the mouth, the salinity manifests itself with finesse and we find notes of dried fruits which extend the aromatic persistence.
Food pairings
Ideal with pork chops with mustard, guinea fowl legs or Bleu de Bresse.
