Medium ruby slightly transparent color. Notes of sweet and sour red berries, also some darker fruit too, dark minerality, some crushed flowers, also some red currant, smoke, also some graphite, pepper, some herbal notes too. It‘s medium+ bodied, with still pretty high acidity and medium tannin that has melted away a little. Good length. There is beautiful tension and freshness here, I really like this.

Shiny slightly translucent ruby color. Decanted for 3 hours. Notes of red berries, also some dark berries, graphite, white pepper, steely/irony minerality, also some flowers. On the palate there is more dark fruit and dark minerality. It's medium+ bodied but has pretty good persistence, with still pretty high acidity and medium+ tannin. Good length. A nice Bressandes that still feels young.

First pretty closed. Opening up a little after a 3 hours decant. Pretty notes of sappy red berries, also some dark red berries, white pepper, some herbs, some ferrous minerality and graphite. It's medium+ bodied with pretty high acidity and medium+ tannin that is good quality. Pretty long finish with some saline notes. A sappy and fresh Bressandes without the fruit or the persistance of the best vintages. Still very good though.

Decanted briefly. Savory red fruit on a bed of saline minerality with an herbed, warming finish. Very good for what it is.

Brooding, oversized and aggressive. In an ugly stage right now.

A deep, rich Burgundy. Violets and raspberry on the nose. Good fruit with earthy undertones on the palate.

Överraskar på mig. Röda bär, lena tanniner. Marsipantoner. Gott.

Visit to Domaine Dubreuil-Fontaine (Domaine Dubreuil-Fontaine, Pernand-Vergelesses): Less generous on the nose than Perrieres. Similar flavors but more elegant. Also very tannic but rounder.
