Perrieres is Mersault's finest 1er Cru vineyard, and the tiny, walled, Clos des Perrieres the finest slice of that. Since Albert Grivault purchased it in 1879, it's been a monopole of the Domaine and if it's not quite... Read More

Truth be told, “Mendocino” and “Cabernet Sauvignon” haven’t always gone together so well. But here a touch of climate change helps carefully selected vineyards – a bit inland and on well-drained,... Read More

Organic/Bio From an ultra-tiny, one-quarter, acre vineyard planted to Bierzo's usual melange of mainly Mencia and then assorted red and white complementary grapes. A richer, creamier, expression than most of Perez's other... Read More
