Domaine Rollin Pernand Vergelesses Blanc 'Les Cloux' 2022, Burgundy

VINEYARDThis pretty hillside slope faces south-east at an elevation of more than 350 metres. Positioned in a combe sheltered from the prevailing winds, its terroir is always warmer in summer, hence the richness of its wines. VINIFICATION AND AGEINGHarvesting is done by hand for the majority of the cuvée. Grapes are pressed slowly, to conserve their personality and their aromatic finesse. After light settling, musts ferment naturally in oak barrels (of which 20% new oak). If the vintage demands it, lees can be put back in contact with the wine by lees-stirring, to continue enriching the wine. Malolactic fermentation occurs naturally during winter. The wine stays on its lees for 10 to 12 months, before being racked and blended. After light filtration, we do our own bottling. TASTE PROFILEA very concentrated bouquet for this village cuvee offers fresh fruit aromas and some exotic notes. The minerality and richness produced by this terroir bring balance and roundness to the palate. GASTRON
