Chanson Pere & Fils Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru En Caradeux 2022
92 pts Jasper Morris Inside BurgundyAnother fullish yellow. Here the fresh white fruit nature of Pernand powers through the Chanson style. This fills the palate without excess, though still with a few oak tannins, before the classy white fruit returns behind. Drink from 2027-2033. Tasted Oct 2023. Vineyard: This 1.8-hectare vineyard is ideally located mid-slope on a hillside near the Corton-Charlemagne vineyards. It shares the same geology and is at the same altitude as its illustrious neighbor, but differs in its east-facing exposure. An exceptional terroir marked by intense minerality. Note From Tom:Fast forward a couple weeks, a representative from Domaine Chanson conducted a tasting of their wines in our back yard in Raleigh. These are some of the first 2023s I have tasted, and I liked most of what I tried. The overall assessment was this was a very good vintage, a warm year like 2022 that produced balanced wines that retained freshness with very good acidities, with minerality
