Buy Henri de Villamont Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru 'Sous Frétille'. Elegant Chardonnay from Côte de Beaune, near Corton-Charlemagne. :

 

The Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru 'Sous Frétille' from Henri de Villamont represents the pinnacle of white Burgundy from this prestigious, yet often overlooked, appellation. This vineyard's proximity to Corton-Charlemagne is no coincidence; the chalky marl soil imparts a profound minerality and structure, creating a Chardonnay of exceptional finesse and longevity.

Tasting Profile

• Appearance: Luminous pale gold.
• Aroma: An intensely complex bouquet of acacia flower, bright citrus fruits (grapefruit, lemon curd), and stone fruit, underscored by a subtle, creamy toasted note and a distinct chalky minerality.
• Taste: Broad and powerful on the palate, yet perfectly refined. The wine delivers a rich, textured mouthfeel that is cut beautifully by a fresh, lengthy, and saline finish.

Food & Wine Pairing Suggestions

A wine built for the table. Serve slightly chilled (11°C - 13°C) to allow its full complexity to unfold.

• Suggested Pairings: Pan-fried Halibut with samphire, Creamy Mushroom Chicken, Fine Seafood Platter (Oysters, Prawns), Mature Comté or Cheddar.
• Storage: Will continue to evolve gracefully for 8-15 years.
