A subtle whiff of exotic fruit can be found on the lightly wooded aromas of mineral reduction, citrus peel, ginger root and acacia blossom. There is once again fine density to the delicious and attractively textured medium weight flavors that exude a bead of minerality on the sappy and long finish that also evidences subtle hints of wood and warmth. This fine effort possesses an almost chewy texture thanks to the abundant dry extract. *Outstanding* (6/2020)
Paul Pernot has run the domaine since 1955 and now his three sons are assisting him. They own 19 hectares of fantastic vineyards in the Cote de Beaune, but sell a vast majority of it to negociants, including Drouhin. The 20% or so that they bottle themselves are pure, elegant, and delicious representations of their best parcels. While most wines see some new oak and they only use barrels for three years, he bottles early in order to preserve freshness and avoid any noticeable oakiness.
