Tasting notes
Our Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru "En Caradeux" has a bright pale golden color and an intense nose with floral, vanilla and almond paste notes. The mouth is ample with aromas of fresh almond and linden. A nice length and a mineral finish.
Description
The village of Pernand-Vergelesses is located just 3km from that of Aloxe-Corton and of all the villages that the Grand Cru hill of Corton looks over, this is the most picturesque. The parcel "En Caradeux", located mid-slope and exposed to the East, faces the hill of Corton. These vines are worked traditionally by the winemakers of Domaine Louis Latour. The soil is stony and the basement is composed of marl and flint limestone which gives the typical particularity of this terroir.
