Pierre Meurgey's 2019 Premier Cru Sous Frétille shows off everything that makes this tucked-away hillside so exciting: bright, mineral, and quietly confident.
Just behind the iconic hill of Corton, Sous Frétille benefits from chalky soils and a prime, sun-catching position. That combo gives the wine its fresh energy and fine detail. Pierre keeps things low-intervention in the cellar, allowing the vineyard’s character to shine through with clarity and class.
In the glass, it’s elegant and expressive, with notes of citrus zest, white blossom, and a gentle nutty lift. The palate is beautifully layered—refined and zippy, with enough texture to keep things interesting.
What the critics say:
"Here the expressive nose is compositionally similar to the straight Pernand, but it offers better layering. On the palate the medium weight flavors possess more volume and richness while displaying a highly refreshing salinity on the markedly more complex and persistent finale. This is really quite good and worth checking out and is a wine that should also drink reasonably well early while rewarding a few more years of cellaring. *Outstanding* *Top Value*"
