Maison Champy Pernand Vergelesses Rouge | Bottles & Bottles The Wine Retailer

Country: France

Grape Varietal: Pinot Noir

Tasting Note:  2020 was particularly sunny, with nearly 311 hours more than normal, and warm, with an average temperature of 1.5°C higher. This vintage was quite dry, with fairly low rainfall. The harvest began on August 20, with a relatively significant early vintage,3 weeks compared to 2019 and 6 days compared to 2003. An exceptional feature of this vintage was that the Pinot Noir reached maturity before the Chardonnay.

Food Pairing:  It will naturally match with meats with relatively strong flavours, such as roasted veal, braised veal or gravy, game and grilled pork. A roast beef or cheeses such as reblochon, or cîteaux are other possibilities.
