Domaine Paul Pernot Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatieres 2015

Bottle Size: 75cl

Region: France: Burgundy White

Colour: White

Style: Still

Grape Variety: Chardonnay

Bright light yellow. Aromas of lemon, lime and spicy oak. Smooth and perfumed on the palate, communicating a sexy touch of sweetness to the flavors of pineapple, white flowers and lichee. More finesse of texture here than in the previous premier crus. And more palate-staining on the suave back end. Very promising. For many years an important supplier of Folatières to Joseph Drouhin, Pernot vinifies Drouhin's portion in his own cellar, using barrels provided by Drouhin.
