Vinous Neal Martin - 05 Jan 23
The 2021 Pernand-Vergelesses Les Fichots 1er Cru is matured in 50% new oak, giving the aromatics a sense of depth and lushness that would have otherwise been missing. It's simpatico with the red berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with smooth tannins, well balanced with fine acidity, sweet strawberry and cranberry notes towards the finish. Lovely.
