Pernand Vergelesses, Ile de Vergelesses, 1er Cru, 2020

Much more virile, mineral and wild fruited than the Sous le Bois at this early juncture, yet not without energy and a certain tension. Classy, but also serious. The south-east facing Ile de Verglesses vineyard is composed of poor, very rocky soils and the resulting wine always has a firm mineral dimension with suave fruit above.
