My note when I tasted this wine was one single word,“Parfait!” After that I put my pen down. Later that day I reflected and recorded some thoughts, but it kind of feels superfluous. Nevertheless, here is a fuller run down. Perrières sits above Charmes on the south end of the village. It lies at 900’ in altitude facing east with stony limestone soils. Aromas of white peach, hazelnut skin, citrus zest (lemon and lime), crushed rocks….. then go in for a second sniff and start over! Seamlessly textured palate, that has a focused attack, plush midpalate, and a finish that resonates with energy and nerve. You could have stopped reading at “parfait.”
