DOMAINE DUBREUIL-FONTAINE
Dubreuil-Fontaine is the leading, traditional Domaine of Pernand-Vergelesses, making age-worthy reds from some of the village's greatest sites. The fashions for 100 new barrels, or for pursuing extra maturity by delayed harvesting, have never appealed to it. The results are beautifully proportioned wines, where natural acidities allow freshness and life to be retained while the wines age. These examples, from two of the best vintages of the 1970's, are fully mature. AH (See also lots 153,155 and 156 for other wines from this Domaine
