The Bourgogne Blanc 2016 is a beautifully composed and refined expression, showcasing the quality achievable at the appellation level in a classic vintage. Aromas of pear, yellow apple, lemon zest, and white flowers emerge with purity, accented by subtle notes of wet stone and almond. On the palate, the wine is supple yet precise, with lively acidity giving lift to its gently textured mid-palate. Flavors of orchard fruit, citrus oil, and light mineral tones unfold with restraint and balance. The finish is clean, fresh, and quietly persistent, reflecting both vintage harmony and careful élevage. An elegant, terroir-driven Bourgogne Blanc that punches well above its classification and drinks beautifully now.

Domaine Paul Pernot is a sixth-generation family estate based in Puligny-Montrachet, widely respected for its classical, understated approach to white Burgundy. The domaine farms its vineyards with great attention to balance, old vines, and careful yield management, favoring precision over volume. In the cellar, Pernot employs gentle pressing, cool fermentations, and restrained oak to preserve freshness and terroir identity. While best known for its Puligny and Premier Cru bottlings, the estate applies the same rigor and philosophy across its entire range. Their wines are defined by clarity, mineral tension, and quiet elegance. Even at the Bourgogne level, Pernot’s signature discipline and finesse are clearly evident.
