Alvina Pernot - Puligny-Montrachet 1er cru 'Les Caillerets' 2020 750ml

An exciting new arrival on the scene in the Côte de Beaune is Alvina Pernot, granddaughter of Paul Pernot of Domaine Paul Pernot and cousin of Philippe Pernot of Domaine Pernot Belicard. After working for three years at her grandfather's Domaine, Alvina and her husband, Philippe Abadie, set up a tiny Domaine and Maison in Puligny-Montrachet...Pale lemon yellow. There is a certain amount of power to the nose but perhaps less elegance. Strong citrus acidity behind, with some energy at the front of the palate before falling away a fraction. There is, though, an attractive, mineral finish. Not quite in place, at the moment. 93 points, Jasper Morris. - Clos Cachet
