Reviewed October 2022Ripe aromas of green apple, passionfruit, and melon dominate the nose and are given depth with shades of butter, chamomile, and spice. The texture is rich and deep, with a creamy feel but no sense of heaviness. The grapes are pressed as whole clusters and fermented on native yeasts, mainly in used casks, before ageing over two winters. This wine is elegant and fine, yet does not lack the substance for long ageing. (CC)

Vinous
The 2021 Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has quite an open and generous bouquet with apple blossom, nectarine and touches of persimmon. I would like a little more terroir expression here. The palate is smooth and slightly creamy on the entry, well balanced and certainly the richest of Pernot's offerings in 2021, a crowd pleaser in many ways, yet it doesn't quite deliver the same caliber as the Bâtard-Montrachet.
