| Winery: | Paul Pernot |
| Description: | This beautiful white Burgundy is from one of Puligny's most historic and influential domaines, run by the legend Paul Pernot for over 60 years, and known for producing classical wines with pristine fruit. Paul Pernot is now assisted by his two sons, and they have 20ha, 15 in Puligny, including several fine 1er cru and two grand cru. Winemaking remains traditional, new oak is kept to 20-30% for 1er crus, 40-50 for the grand cru and bâtonnage is minimal, with none post -malolactic fermentation. These are not flashy wines, their peach and white flower fruit is balanced by cool, chalky minerality and racy succulence; they are the epitome of Puligny. The Pernot holdings, some of which have been in the family for over 200 years, are a veritable who's who of Puligny's best terroirs. The domaine's youngest vines, in some village sites, are 20 years old. Most of the 1er and Grand Cru were planted by Paul between 1957 and 1961 and pre-date modern clones. No herbicides are used anymore and the approach of ‘Lutte Raisonnée' is followed. Winemaking is simple, after pressing the juice settles for 24 hours and is then racked into barrel for fermentation. The wines are racked once more before bottling with a light filtration. The Premier Cru of Clos de la Garenne is a clos shared by Pernot with Magenta/Jadot. Planted in 1956, this vineyard produces wines of sheer elegance with pronounced floral componets and mouthwatering citrus and pear flavors. |
