The 2016 Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru Ile de Vergelesses has a broody, dark berry and cold slate-scented bouquet, but it is nicely detailed. It just needs a little more vigor, but that should come through with time. The palate is medium-bodied with supple ripe tannin, tightly-knit black fruit laced with blueberry that leads to quite a caressing finish. Give this a couple of years in bottle and it should be drinking well.
