Pre Arrival Paul Pernot Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru "Les Folatieres" 2024

Notes:

Les Folatières is one of the most celebrated Premier Cru vineyards in Puligny-Montrachet, situated on the village's prized mid-slope just above the Grand Cru vineyards. Long regarded as one of the appellation's finest sites, it consistently produces wines that combine concentration, elegance, and remarkable aging potential, often rivaling wines from far more expensive vineyards.
Domaine Paul Pernot has been a cornerstone of Puligny-Montrachet for generations, quietly building a reputation as one of the village's most reliable producers. The family's philosophy centers on expressing the character of each vineyard through careful farming and restrained cellar work, resulting in wines prized for their purity, balance, and sense of place.
The vineyard's thin limestone and marl soils provide exceptional drainage while forcing vine roots deep into the fractured bedrock below. This unique terroir contributes the distinctive minerality that has made Puligny-Montrachet famous, lending notes of crushed stone, chalk, and salinity that bring freshness and structure to the finished wine.
Fermentation and aging take place in French oak barrels, with a measured use of new oak designed to complement rather than dominate the fruit. Extended lees aging adds texture and complexity while preserving the wine's natural energy. The result is a Chardonnay layered with citrus, white peach, orchard fruit, white flowers, and a long mineral finish capable of evolving beautifully for a decade or more in the cellar.
