Description
Paul Pernot is as classically Burgundian as you can get. His family owns the largest parcel of the of 1er Cru Les Folatieres vineyards in Puligny-Montrachet, he communicates exclusively by fax (or at least he did, well into the email era), he wears sweater vests almost every day, he has a cranky look in his eye, and he makes some of the best damn Chardonnay on the planet. Case in point. With toasted walnut, pear and apple flavors laced with a squeeze of lemon, this white has the power to carry the load of the dinner table. Drink with a creamy cheese or sip with a cave-aged Gruyere.
