This Pernand-Vergelesses is full-bodied and structured with a precise minerality, discreetly spiced oak depth and a fresh, lingering acidity. Its weight and creamy character mean you can happily serve dishes with a little richness, such as butter-fried fish, shellfish in cream and poultry cooked with butter and herbs, where the wine's acidity keeps the palate fresh at the same time. The honey and fruit notes play beautifully with caramelized vegetables, and the nutty oak depth matches the intensity of aged Alpine cheeses. Choose preparations of moderate strength, so the wine's pure fruit and elegant minerality have room to unfold.

About the wine

Elegant and characterful white wine, crafted from Chardonnay from one of Burgundy's most idyllic villages, located in the northern part of Côte de Beaune, where the slopes capture the sun's warmth and create ideal ripening conditions.

The cuvée is dedicated to Arnaud’s daughter – Mahaut.

On the nose, you are met with a seductive aroma of honey and honeysuckle, which over time develops into light exotic notes. On the palate, the wine is lively and structured with precise minerality and a beautiful energy that balances the intense fruit. The aftertaste is fresh and persistent, with a purity that highlights its classic Burgundy character.

The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully sorted to ensure optimal ripeness, with vinification using natural fermentation without added sulfur. The wine is aged for 12 months in Burgundy oak barrels, of which 15% are new, adding a discreet spicy depth without overpowering the wine's pure fruit.

This Pernand-Vergelesses can be enjoyed young for its fresh and lively character, yet it also boasts a nice aging potential of 10-12 years, during which its aromatic complexity will unfold even more.

Critic reviews

Citrusy and subtly reductive. Lime-smoky. The palate has considerable volume, filling it well with fine phenolic extract, ripe acidity and rich, spicy components. A full-bodied yet impeccably balanced terroir type of Chardonnay.
