A picture is worth a thousand words sometimes.

That’s awfully clear Pinot.

#3

Times are tough…



and hazy!

#4

Don’t tell the Evenstads.

#5

You laugh! Don’t forget the Gouges white pinot: http://www.cellartracker.com/wine.asp?iWine=479239" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I’m missing something… Where does it say it’s a Pinot? Several producers in Pernand make whites as well as reds - it’s Cote de Beaune after all. This is less odd than the Chassagne reds.

#7

Just in their description of it

#8

Oh… Under Type. Totally missed that…

#9

WB screws this up from time to time. I’ve gotten SB in place of Chard before (harder to spot than this though). They were good about it.

#10

Still a good deal for $10?

#11

Mike,

97 white might be over the hill, but for $10, meh. I like Pernand whites, but I’m not sure they’re 12 year agers esp from a vintage like 97.

#12

Thanks.

#13

I also cracked up at the big pool of water at the base of the bottle. But how did they miss the fact it wasn’t red wine?

#14

I was going o bid on that but was confused and while hesitating someone else bid

#15

Steve,

it’s been a while since I used WB to list anything, but i wonder if it defaults to a value under type?

#16

There’s a good chance that’s true, but they have to post the photo to the listing. Something might have clicked.

i dont think its a mistake. The wine is a Rouge
1997 Louis Jadot Pernand Vergelesses Rouge

current vintages are around $20

#19

While there can be both rouge and blanc Pernand-Vergelesses AC, and Jadot makes both, the picture seems to be pretty strong evidence this is the Chardonnay!

#20

Yes…if you can go to the store and pick it up for 10 + tax…but other than that…no thanks.
