Beaune 1er cru Blanc "Les Pertuisots" 2022 - Philippe Germain 75cl
Philippe Germain's 2022 Beaune 1er Cru Blanc "Les Pertuisots" is a very refined white wine from one of the most renowned premier crus in Beaune, Burgundy. This Chardonnay is grown in the exceptional Pertuisots* terroir, whose well-drained limestone soils give the wine a beautiful minerality and a marked aromatic depth.
Its color is a pale yellow with golden highlights. On the nose, it expresses delicate aromas of white flowers, white-fleshed fruits like pear and peach, and subtle notes of fresh butter and almond, typical of barrel aging. On the palate, this Beaune 1er Cru is full-bodied and elegant, with a beautiful acidity that balances its roundness. The texture is silky, and the finish, long and saline, reveals mineral and toasty nuances.
This wine is best served between 10 and 12°C and pairs perfectly with fish in sauce, creamy poultry, shellfish, or even mature cheeses. Enjoy it now for its aromatic expression, but it will gain complexity and depth after a few years of aging.
