The Meursault Perrières 1er Cru 2015 is a powerful yet impeccably balanced Chardonnay, shaped by a warm, generous vintage and the climat’s unmistakable mineral backbone. The nose reveals lemon oil, ripe pear, white peach, and crushed stone, layered with notes of hazelnut and subtle spice. On the palate, the wine is dense and concentrated, yet driven by vibrant acidity that gives vertical lift and definition. A refined creaminess supports flavors of citrus zest, almond, and orchard fruit without softening the wine’s tension. As it opens, saline and chalky nuances deepen the complexity. The finish is long, resonant, and incisive—an authoritative Perrières that combines richness, precision, and serious aging potential.

Domaine Pernot-Bélicard is a small, quality-driven family estate based in Meursault, known for its quietly classical and terroir-faithful approach to white Burgundy. The domaine farms old vines across some of Meursault’s most prized climats, emphasizing careful soil work, low yields, and balanced ripeness. In the cellar, winemaking is restrained and traditional, with gentle pressing, native fermentations, and judicious oak that never overwhelms the wine’s natural minerality. Pernot-Bélicard’s style privileges precision, tension, and longevity over opulence. Perrières, often regarded as Meursault’s most “Grand Cru–like” Premier Cru, is the crown jewel of their holdings. In this site, the domaine excels at translating stony intensity into refined elegance.
