Domaine Marius Delarche Pernand-Vergelesses Les Vergelesses Premier Cru 2018

"There are many ways to the recognition of truth, and Burgundy is one of them.” – Isak Dinesen

For many, Burgundy IS the definition of wine. We rarely have access to enough of ANYTHING to send out an email offer, so we are particularly thrilled to have this Les Vergelesses Premier Cru from the coveted Delarche family. 2018 is a warm and generous vintage and this is drinking spectacularly right now. Pernand-Vergelesses is tucked into the junction of two valleys among the hills of the Côte de Beaune. The nearby Hill of Corton stands guard over it and two other villages, Aloxe-Corton and Ladoix-Serrigny, harboring prestigious Grands Crus: Corton in red and Corton-Charlemangne in white. Pernand, with its steep, sloping site and clay/limestone soils creates a complex fruitprofile rich in strawberry, kirsch and “sappy” fruit.

An INCREDIBLE value for Premier Cru level juice and a wine that will continue to provide pleasure for the next 5-7 years! We only wish we had more…literally just 108 bottles!
