Pernot Belicard Bourgogne Cote d'Or Chardonnay
Domaine Pernot Belicard
France - Burgundy - Bourgogne Chardonnay

The grapes for this wine come from a small parcel of 6 acres in the village of Puligny-Montrachet, resulting in wines of exceptional quality. The same viticulture and vinification methods are applied for all the wines from the Domaine.

The wine offers an expressive nose of white flowers, stone fruits and buttered bread notes. The mouth is mineral and elegant, and delicate toasty nuances bring extra length in the mouth alongside a fresh acidity and a good balance.

2024 Pernot Belicard Bourgogne Cote d'Or Chardonnay - 94 PTS - AOW

2024 Pernot Belicard Bourgogne Cote d'Or Chardonnay - 94 PTS - AOW

"apstein on wine logoI buy this wine virtually every year because it consistently delivers more than the price suggests. In fact, I bought a case and a half of the ‘24 even before I had a chance to taste it, based solely on Pernot-Belicard’s extraordinary track record and the greatness of the ’24 vintage for whites. Having tasted it, I’m glad I did! The Côte d’Or moniker appended to Bourgogne means that the grapes come entirely from that revered part of Burgundy. (In contrast, the grapes for Burgundy Blanc can come from anywhere in Burgundy, stretching from Auxerre in the north to the Mâconnais in the south.) Philippe Pernot, who is the grandson of the venerable Paul Pernot, use grapes for this wine that typically come from nine (or so) plots both in Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault that lie outside of those appellations. The stunning 2024 captures depth, minerals and freshness, all showing seamlessly together. Enjoyable now, my experience with the wine tells me that it will develop creaminess over the next couple of years.- Michael Apstein
