Beaune 1er Cru "Les Perrières" is a highly regarded Premier Cru vineyard located in the Cote de Beaune, known for producing elegant and age-worthy Pinot Noir wines. Its name, "Perrières," meaning "quarries," hints at the stony, limestone-rich soils that contribute distinct minerality and a firm structure to the wines. These wines typically express notes of red berries, cherry, and subtle spice, evolving into more complex forest floor and earthy characteristics with age.

"Lovely red fruit and a very silky personality make this very easy to enjoy. However, this is sophisticated wine with very fine tannins. Very long, filigree finish. Drink or hold."
