Philippe Pernot launched his first wine under his own domaine label in 2009 and is today "making rapid strides" (Wine Advocate). From a family of much praised Puligny producers, he's more than maintaining the clan name with this expressive 1er Cru.

Philippe Pernot is son of the renowned Puligny producer Paul Pernot and is certainly playing his part in keeping up the reputation of the family name. He and his wife (the Belicard side) launched their own domaine in 2009, with just six hectares of vines, also in Puligny. They started off by selling their grapes to the négociants, but, gradually, with confidence, making more and more of the wines themselves. Philippe is meticulous in his methods – both in the vineyard and in the cellar. He likes to pick quite early, all by hand, with hand sorting at the cellar too. The wines stay in barrel, on lees until August, with over 20% of the Cru wine going into new barrels. A fine, expressive, intense Premier Cru already, it'll continue to improve.
