Description
The Pernand-Vergelesses Les Belles Filles comes from the vineyards of the Ramonet estate, which is located between the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune, at the foot of the beautiful Cru des Corton. The name “les belles filles” refers to a place where amorous encounters took place. The soil is predominantly calcareous and clayey, oriented to the east. This produces smooth and fruity wines that are among the most beautiful from the Côte de Beaune and of course from the Pernand Vergelesses appellation. The ramonet style is unique. Jean-claude Ramonet is used to producing delicate, subtle and very silky red wines. This cuvée from Pernand Vergelesses Les Belles Filles is once again proof of this. All precautions are taken to minimize handling of the grapes and wine to preserve their full integrity. a wine that requires two to three years of aging before opening, so that the entire identity of the terroir emerges. It is a wine that, thanks to its round, fine and fleshy profile, easily pairs with characterful meat such as beef or lamb. On the nose, notes of blackcurrants, blueberries and currants are subtly revealed. we feel a beautiful freshness from the first nose, a touch of boxwood, pink berries and a touch of white pepper provide great complexity. The taste is very silky soft with velvety tannins and a touch of minerality appears. This is the special feature of most fine pernand vergelesses.
ABOUT JEAN-CLAUDE RAMONET
Noël and Jean-Claude Ramonet are the third generation to manage the grand Ramonet wine estate, with the task of maintaining the wonderful reputation it has built up. It is said that grandfather Pierre arrived in Burgundy in the late 1920s with nothing more than his knapsack. After years of purchasing grapes and making wine from them, he was gradually able to purchase wine plots in his chosen village of Chassagne. With the ultimate highlight in 1978 being the purchase of a plot of land from Le Montrachet, and paid in cash too!
Today they own 17 hectares. In the Chassagne the very beautiful premiers crus Ruchottes, Morgeots, Caillerets, Clos-de-la-Boudriotte, Clos-Saint-Jean, Chaumées and Vergers, but also Bâtard and Bienvenues. Recently, Ramonet has been able to expand in Saint-Aubin (Les Charmois) and Puligny-Montrachet (Champ-Canet and very beautiful villages). The average age of the vines is 60 years and the yields per hectare are extremely low. Depending on the quality, the wines are aged for between 12 and 15 months in a mix of new and used oak barrels (generally 30% new oak). Long maturation on the yeast spores, light filtering and only occasional batonnage. The Ramonet brothers, like their grandfather, have remained true winegrowers, but the distribution of their wines is being fought over worldwide. In theory, Noël is responsible for the wine cellars and Jean Claude for the vineyards.

Noël and Jean-Claude Ramonet are the third generation to manage the grand winery of Ramonet, with the mission of maintaining its wonderfully built reputation. Grandfather Pierre is said to have arrived in Burgundy in the late 1920s with nothing more than his knapsack. After years of buying grapes and making wine from them, he was gradually able to buy vineyards in his chosen village of Chassagne. The ultimate highlight in 1978 was the purchase of a plot of land from Le Montrachet, and paid in cash too!
Pierre Ramonet died in 1994 at the age of 88. But its echo lives in the wines, in the capable hands of his grandsons Noël and Jean-Claude who have continued its reputation since 1984 (under the strict command of the grandfather). The original Ramonets came from Bresse on the other side of the Saône from Chalon. In the 19th century, a branch settled in Beaune, where they were millers. The mill went bankrupt and one of them, Claude, moved to Chassagne, where he became a Tacheron, a vineyard worker who is paid by the amount of land he farms. Claude had three children; a daughter who married Georges Bachelet (hence the current domain Bachelet-Ramonet) and two sons, Pierre, born in 1906 and Claude (1914). Pierre married Lucie Prudhon (for a time the wine was sold as Domaine Ramonet-Prudhon). They had only one son, André (1934), father of Noël and Jean-Claude.
