Universal consensus holds that Ile des Vergelesses is the greatest site for red wine in the village, and the Rollins turn out a stunning example every vintage—one of the most consistent and distinctive red Burgundies in our portfolio. Situated at an altitude of 300 meters on a steep southeast-facing slope, Ile des Vergelesses combines the arresting elegance of Les Vergelesses and the mineral power of Les Fichots, with all elements hanging together in delicate harmony. A present but non-disruptive firmness of structure implores the drinker to wait a few years for the wine’s treasures to be revealed.
