Chanson, Pernand-Vergelesses, Les Vergelesses 1er Cru, 6x75cl

🍷 Chanson – Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru ‘Les Vergelesses’
France | Burgundy | Pernand-Vergelesses Premier Cru | Pinot Noir
Style: Still Red Wine | Structured and Elegant
Winemaking: Traditional Burgundian vinification with careful extraction and ageing in French oak barrels (a portion new) for 14–18 months. Made to express both the power of the site and the finesse of Pinot Noir.
Farming: From the highly regarded Premier Cru vineyard of Les Vergelesses, located on the mid-slope of Pernand-Vergelesses, where clay-limestone soils and ideal sun exposure produce wines of depth, structure, and aromatic complexity.

🍒 A bold and refined Burgundy—intense, structured, and cellar-worthy.

👁 In the Glass:
Dark purple with ruby highlights—dense and vibrant.

👃 On the Nose:
Rich and expressive. Aromas of ripe black cherry, blackcurrant, and blackberry intertwine with spice, toasted oak, and a hint of roasted coffee.

👅 On the Palate:
Full and layered. Concentrated dark fruit and savoury spice are framed by firm tannins and a tight, mineral-driven core. The texture is deep and commanding, yet balanced by freshness. The finish is long, ample, and resonant.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Ideal with duck breast, beef Wellington, game birds, or wild mushroom dishes. A powerful Pinot that matches well with rich, savoury fare.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Drink from 5 years after vintage or cellar for 10–15+ years to develop further nuance and complexity.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Chanson’s ‘Les Vergelesses’ is a standout Premier Cru—serious, age-worthy, and deeply expressive of place. A wine that delivers the power of Pernand with true Burgundian finesse.
