Vosne-Romanée
Terroir
Clayey-limestone soil, with a clayey predominance. We own 1.05 hectares of vines located between Vosne-Romanée and Clos Vougeot.
Winemaking and Aging
Grapes are harvested by hand then sorted out and totally destemmed. Maceration is made and alcoholic fermentation lasts from 15 to 20 days in temperatures' control vats, with punching of the cap. Aging is 100 % made in oak barrels (40% new oak) during 16 month. Malolactic fermentation is 100 % realized. Wine is bottled in Traditional Burgundy bottles. The cork is marked with the estate's name and the vintage. Robert Vernizeau is the winemaker at Domaine des Perdrix for 16 years.
Tasting notes
Beautiful garnet colour with purple tints.
The nose is masculine and powerful with spices and stones fruits gently jammy.
Nice intensity and balance on the palate with a beautiful presence of minerality. A wine to be cellar that will reveal its potential in the next years
