WINE DESCRIPTION
Paul Pernot's Beaune 1er Cru Clos du Dessus des Marconnets is a distinguished red Burgundy from one of the region’s esteemed producers. The Clos du Dessus des Marconnets vineyard, located in the northern part of Beaune, benefits from limestone-rich soils and excellent sun exposure, which impart depth and structure to the Pinot Noir grapes. Paul Pernot applies a careful winemaking approach, balancing tradition with subtle oak aging to highlight the vineyard’s terroir. The wine is known for its elegant texture, lively acidity, and precise expression of red fruit, making it a refined representation of Beaune’s 1er Cru appellation.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Beaune 1er Cru opens with a vibrant bouquet of red cherries, raspberries, and hints of rose petals, accompanied by earthy undertones.On the palate, it showcases bright acidity, pristine fruit, and silky tannins, leading to a harmonious and refined finish. The wine pairs beautifully with roasted poultry, mushroom-based dishes, or soft cheeses. Best enjoyed with some bottle age to allow further development, it can also be cellared for several years to gain complexity and nuance.
