Domaine Etienne Delarche 2022 Les Boutieres Vieilles Vignes

The nose opens with delicate red berry, violets, cedar, and a gentle earth note. On the palate this is just shy of moderate in weight with good acid and a flavor set of light raspberries, red cherry, earth, cedar and mixed baking spices. This will be great for classic Burgundy lovers that like a mix of fruit and earth notes.  D&M Tasting Notes

Aromas of black fruits, licorice, earth, light pepper. Juicy and fleshy, with good energy; bramble fruit, violet candy. 

It’s easy to miss the petite hamlet of Pernand-Vergelesses, hiding behind bulk of the noble Corton hill. Yet this Côte de Beaune village, with its impeccable vineyards, is a treasure trove of refined Burgundy wines. For more than three generations, the Delarche family has crafted authentic, earthy and expressive Burgundy in Pernand, much under the radar of the Burgundy cognoscenti. Yet Delarche Burgundy offers a clarity and purity of flavor that is captivating; whites are creamy and concentrated, taking a cue from Corton-Charlemagne, while reds are spicy and refined, seductive from the moment they’re bottled yet able to age effortlessly for years.
