A lesser-known appellation of the Côte de Beaune in Burgundy, Pernand-Vergelesses offers wines that are often very balanced and very refined. Some of the Corton Charlemagne are in the commune of Pernand Vergelesses, showing the quality potential of the wines from this appellation, and in particular the Pernand-Vergelesses Blancs.

Steep hillside overlooking the village, facing south. Terroir composed of shallow clay-limestone soil with lots of pebbles and a marly limestone subsoil. Most of the vineyard was planted there at the end of the 1980s.

This premier cru develops a nose that is both rich, generous and complex. On the palate, aromas of white peaches and a few "exotic" notes give it a nice balance of power and finesse. A strong potential for this terroir.

Ideally, give him at least two years to flourish. It will then go wonderfully with white meats in sauce, fish in curry papillotes or pan-fried prawns.

The delicate vinification in oak barrels brings structure and completes the aromatic palette with very subtle vanilla notes. This white wine from Burgundy appellation Pernand Vergelesses comes from one of the best estates of the Côte de Beaune, the Domaine Rollin.

Serving temperature: 13 to 14°

Pernand Vergelesses

Characteristics of the wines

In red, Pernand-Vergelesses has dark ruby lines with intense purple reflections. The nose opens with strawberry, raspberry and violet as well. Older, the wine draws on undergrowth and spices. The palate is conciliatory with solid shoulders and well-integrated tannins. Fleshy and full-bodied, its fat gives it all the necessary harmony.
In white, white gold and pale yellow are tinged with gold with age. The aromas of white flowers (hawthorn, acacia) announce with time amber and honey, spices again. On the palate, a mineral, harmonious and very pleasant wine.

Sommelier's tip

Red: solid and luscious, it is a great seducer. With its virile but superbly melted tannins, its preference is naturally for meats with relatively strong flavours such as roasted, braised or sauced veal, leg of lamb, game birds and grilled pork. A roast beef will also succumb to its character. On the cheese platter: Mont d'Or, Vacherin,
Tomme de Savoie, Reblochon, Cîteaux.
Serving temperature: 15 to 16 °C.
White: lively, light and playful, it is the great wine of sushi, which it will awaken while respecting their double crunchy and mellow texture. He enjoys the company of freshwater fish in white sauce, or pasta and seafood risottos, which he puts into perspective thanks to his vivacity. He also appreciates cheeses from the Gruyère, Blue and Goat family.
Serving temperature: 10 to 12 °C.

Situation

Nestled at the confluence of two valleys, Pernand-Vergelesses is located on the heights of the Côte de Beaune. It is the "Montagne de Corton" which is home to three villages and the same passion shared with Aloxe-Corton and Ladoix-Serrigny on a remarkable wine-growing site: Corton in red, Corton-Charlemagne in white, two prestigious Grands Crus. On the hillside and with its steep streets, Pernand has a smiling face. A cultural mecca: renovator of the theatre in France (the RRF, the Vieux Colombier in Paris), craftsman during the 1920s of one of the first "decentralisations" of dramatic art, Jacques Copeau
(1879-1949) lived there for a long time and gave birth to the adventure of the Copiaus (great actors were trained in this "school troupe" in a winegrower's spirit). This work remains alive.

Terroirs

Most of the vines are exposed to the east, south and a few to the northeast. The altitude: between 250 and 300 meters. At the base of the hillside, clay-limestone soils mixed with "chaillots" (siliceous residues of flint limestone). They are loose, rich in potash and phosphoric acid. Halfway up the hillside, the stony limestone soil is suitable for Pinot Noir. At the top, marly, brown or yellowish soils are devoted to Chardonnay.
