Chandon de Briailles Pernand Vergelesse Ile de Vergelesse 1er Cru 2005 (1.5L)

90-92 BH

Note: a mix of vine ages though the oldest date from 1938

Tasting note: A classy, pure, refined and ultra elegant nose of crushed red pinot, raspberry and subtle earth notes complements the focused, spicy and intense medium full flavors blessed with laser-like precision on the textured, cool and penetrating finale. This is an exercise in understatement and harmony. In short, a terrific effort built for the long haul. Outstanding. Allen Meadows, Burghound
