Pernand-Vergelesses
Rouge
The 2020 vintage is a unique vintage. It is marked by historic precocity from budburst, with an advance of 3 weeks, until the harvest which took place entirely in the month of August. High temperatures associated with a lack of precipitation cause a significant water deficit as well as evapotranspiration phenomena in July and August. The absence of rain, on the other hand, allows the health of the grapes to be very satisfactory. The particular conditions of this vintage generate wonderful balances.
Vineyard
Pinot Noir and Chardonnay have lived side by side in this village for a long time. The soils reserved for Pinot Noir are located at the bottom and middle of the hillside. The soils are quite red, rich in ferruginous clay but also in silica residues and limestone with flint. Cuvée produced on the terroirs of Les Pins and Sous les Clous.
