| Community Tasting Notes (average 89 pts. and median of 89 pts. in 12 notes) - hiding notes with no text | | | Tasted by Blake Brown on 10/1/2017: 2007 DOMAINE PAVELOT LES VERGELESSES PERNARD-VERGELESSES 1ER CRU- wonderful, inviting aromatics introduce the fresh, lightly spiced red raspberry flavour that prevails throughout; it has grace and elegance and holds a steady course to make a profound statement for balance; one of my favs on the night. (1029 views) | | | Tasted by Milos on 6/12/2016 & rated 91 points: This was a very nice surprise. Drinking very well now and although it may gain some complexity this is very hard to resist. (1643 views) | | | Tasted by Milos on 5/29/2016 & rated 91 points: Everything this wine should be. Cherry with earthy complexity, balance palate with just the right acidity, good mid palate and decent finish. Very enjoyable not but no need to rush. (1603 views) | | | Tasted by fitzi on 12/30/2015: This wine still presents initially as stony, stingy and hard. Now, however, during a night in the open bottle, the miracle of wine chemistry transubstantiates it into that paradoxically Pinot blend of tang, flowers, fruit and minerals. Good, full, and well-balanced - surprisingly so for the oft-disdained 2007 vintage. Pernand Vergelesses may not give the most generous of red Burgundy wines, but it has its own tale to tell, one of character and distinction. This wine is drinking beautifully now, with an ample decant. (1889 views) | | | Tasted by fitzi on 12/22/2014: This wine is showing well now, pretty open, fairly light on the palate, signature cherries on the nose. The Pernand hauture dominates this 2007 rendition, manifesting as a lean overall profile with a bit of stoneiness the first day, which resolves the second evening into a smack of almost chili-like acid-tannic intensity on the finish. I'm growing more and more fond of the odd, fussy profile from this commune. This bottle will be appreciated more by afficianados of texture and nuance, than of overt frut and depth. (2234 views) | | | Tasted by fitzi on 11/30/2014: This is a nice Pernand 'les,', in a lean, linear format, with appealing tannic cut, good acidity, but reticent fruit - a bit of cherry in the background notwithstanding. For the vintage, fine; drink with lighter fare or snacks. Don't know if it will continue to develop; there's no inner tension to indicate that it will. (1577 views) | | | Tasted by vijayk416 on 3/17/2014 & rated 87 points: Continues to underwhelm. (1640 views) | | | Tasted by octopussy on 3/12/2014 & rated 91 points: 2007 Pinot Noir from Baden & Bourgogne (Home): Transparent cherry red. In the nose, there's dark fruit, cherry, cassis, it's extremely precise, clear and pure. Cool appearance overall. On the palate, it's equally clear, dark fruited, minerally, quite acidic, fairly austere, but beautiful. Slightly short finish. (2142 views) | | | Tasted by fitzi on 6/25/2012: Notably leaner than the 2006 bottle opened a few nights earlier, with less soft textural caress and juiciness, but slightly grainier tannins. Fiery Pernand gout de terroir present and accounted for. Pleasant enough, but if it's got stuff to show, it needs more time in order to show it. (1820 views) | | | Tasted by Zhyve Belarus on 5/2/2012 & rated 89 points: Sweeter than most Burgundies. Very nice straight out of the bottle. Unfortunately, did not improve much with air. (1460 views) | | | Tasted by mcease on 4/14/2011 & rated 86 points: Tart cherries, smoked oak on the nose. Tart cherries on the palet. Not worth the price. (1716 views) | | | Tasted by vijayk416 on 12/29/2010 & rated 88 points: A little simple and underwhelming right now. 88+ (1591 views) |
| Domaine Pavelot (Jean-Marc et Hugues) Producer website
THE DOMAIN IS MANAGED BY HUGUES PAVELOT, WHO HAS TAKEN OVER IN RECENT YEARS FROM HIS FATHER JEAN-MARC.The domaine has impressive holdings: six plots of premier cru Savigny-les-Beaune, three of which are in the famed valley of Bouilland. Their basic Savigny is a perfect marriage of tension and freshness. The premier crus beautifully reflect their respective terroirs, and have proven over time their ability to age with grace and elegance. It is is highly recommended to cellar crus like Les Peuillets and La Dominode. A perusal of reviews from recent vintages by Burghound’s Allan Meadows reveals that Pavelot is amongst the appellation’s best.
Today, Hugues Pavelot handles operations and wine production, and Domainet is recognized as one of the best producers in
Savigny-Lés-Beaune.
He has taken over this Domaine after his father Jean-Marc. They currently own 13 hectares of vineyards primarily in Savigny-Lés-Beaune, of which no less than approx. 7.8 acres is 1st cru. Of which also 0.09 acres white Corton Grand Cru. They are located in the town of Savigny-Lés-Beaune, where all production and storage also takes place.
Their vineyards consist mainly of old vines, in some areas of their fields with an age of up to 80 years!
The vinification is optimized in relation to the individual terroir. It is important for Hugues that the individual terroir for the opportunity to express themselves with the right characteristics terroir for terroir.
Next to their own wines, they have started making some wine from grapes they buy from other winemakers (negociant business).Pinot Noir Varietal character (Appellation America) | Varietal article (Wikipedia)
Pinot Noir is the Noble red grape of Burgundy, capable of ripening in a cooler climate, which Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot will not reliably do. It is unpredictable and difficult both to grow and to vinify, but results in some of the finest reds in the world. It is believed to have been selected from wild vines two thousand years ago. It is also used in the production of champagne. In fact, more Pinot Noir goes into Champagne than is used in all of the Cote d'Or! It is also grown in Alsace, Jura, Germany, the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Romania, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Serbia, Italy, and so forth, with varying degrees of success.
Pinot Noir is one of the world's most prestigious grapes. It is very difficult to grow and thrives well in France, especially in Champagne and Burgundy. Pinot Noir thrives less in hot areas, is picky on soil, and deserves some oak storage.
Pinot Noir, or Blauburgunder / Spätburgunder in German, is a blue grapevine - and, as the German name suggests, the grape comes originally from Burgundy in France.
The grape, which thrives in calcareous soils, is used primarily for the production of red wine, and it is widely regarded as producing some of the best wines in the world. The wine style is often medium-bodied with high fruit acidity and soft tannins. It can be quite peculiar in fragrance and taste, and not least in structure - which may be why it is referred to as "The Grapes Ballerina".
Pinot Noir is also an important ingredient in sparkling wines, not least in champagne since it is fruity, has good acidity and contains relatively little tannins.
The grape is considered quite demanding to grow. The class itself consists of tightly packed grapes, which makes it more sensitive to rot and other diseases.
Pinot Noir changes quite easily and is genetically unstable. It buds and matures early which results in it often being well ripened. Climate is important for this type of grape. It likes best in cool climates - in warm climates the wines can be relaxed and slightly pickled.
In cooler climates, the wine can get a hint of cabbage and wet leaves, while in slightly warmer regions we often find notes of red berries (cherries, strawberries, raspberries, currants), roses and slightly green notes when the wine is young. With age, more complex aromas of forest floor, fungi and meat emerge.
In Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Hungary, it often produces light wines with less character. However, it has produced very good results in California, Oregon and New Zealand.
With its soft tannins and delicate aroma, it is excellent for white fish, chicken and light meat. For the stored wines you can serve small game. Classic duck breast is a matter of course, a Boeuf Burgundy and Pinot Noir are pure happiness.
Pinot Noir loses quality by over-harvesting.
Pinot Noir is prone to diseases, especially rot and mildew. Viruses cause major problems especially in Burgundy.
Pinot Noir are large round grapes with thin skins. Relatively high in alcohol content. Medium rich tannins and good with acid.
As a young person, Pinot Noir has a distinctly fruity character such as raspberries, cherries and strawberries.
A mature Pinot Noir, the taste is different. Cherry goes into plum and prune flavors. It smells of rotten leaves, coffee, moist forest floor and animal wine. This must be experienced.
In warm climates you find boiled plum, some rustic, little acid.
If the grapes are over-grown, the wine will be thin, with little color and flavor.Les Vergelesses Savigny-les-Beaune On weinlagen.info

2022 harvest: idealwine.info | wine-searcher.comBurgundy Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)
Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson
# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates
# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson
# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson
# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio

Vineyard maps on weinlagen.infoPernand-Vergelesses 1er CruThe appellation
At the confluence of two valleys, the appellation of Pernand-Vergelesses, perched between 290 and 360 meters, is in the northern portion of the Côte de Beaune. The AOC Pernand-Vergelesses covers 123 hectares: 90 hectares of red of which 44 are Premier Cru and 53 of white of which 17 are Premier Cru.
“Sous Frétille” has been classified as a Premier Cru since 2001 (but only for white wines.) The word “Frétille” is a derivation of “forestelle”, or forest in old French. Hence, “Sous Frétille” indiquates the geographic location of the parcel, just under the forest.
