Description
From 2.5 hectares of vines in the cool valley of Pernand-Vergelesses. The wine is fermented and raised in a 50-50 split of traditional Burgundian 228-litre barrels and 400-litre barrels, the latter preserving freshness and minimising the impact of the 5% new oak. Simon got an average of 15 hl/ha, but some plots were as low as 5 hl/ha. This is strongly mineral and with a note of lemon oil. The wine finishes with a very pleasing level of concentration.

Critics reviews
Jancis Robinson MW 16/20
Bottled in August 2022
Edgy and well chiselled at a decent price for a Cote d'Or white.
Drink 2024 - 2030
Neal Martin 86/100
The 2021 Pernand-Vergelesses Village has a little chalkiness on the nose at first, very mineral-driven, almost terse. The palate is well balanced and built around a fine acidic line, though it doesn't quite deliver the complexity or mineralité of some of Rollin's other cuvées.
Drink 2023 - 2028
Jasper Morris MW 88/100
Pale lemon and lime colour. Once again, there is an immediately attractive nose, softer perhaps than the chiselled white fruit of old in Pernand. Weighty ripe apples at the back, slightly more mineral finish, but this is a plump style for the vintage.
Drink 2024 - 2027
About this wine
Pernand-Vergelesses
Pernand-Vergelesses is a beautiful village tucked away behind the hill of Corton, and an excellent source for fine Burgundy at a relatively affordable price. Jadot have registered their own name, Le Clos de la Croix de Pierre, in a vineyard that faces the mighty hill. The lower part of the slope is an excellent site for Pinot Noir, while whites are grown on lighter soils higher up.
