Domaine Petit-Roy, Pernand Vergelesses Les Combottes 2023

Domaine Petit-Roy’s Pernand-Vergelesses Les Combottes 2023 is a characterful Burgundy Chardonnay that combines purity, precision, and a sense of place. Sourced from one of Pernand-Vergelesses’ most respected lieu-dits, it offers the kind of focused, mineral-driven style that makes white Burgundy so compelling.

Tasting Notes
The wine typically shows a pale, luminous gold color in the glass. On the nose, expect delicate aromas of white flowers, citrus peel, ripe pear, and subtle wet stone notes, with a light touch of lees complexity adding depth. On the palate, it is likely to be crisp and finely structured, with flavors of lemon, green apple, white peach, and a chalky mineral edge. The finish should be clean and persistent, with enough balance and concentration to develop nicely over the next few years. While enjoyable young for its freshness, it should also reward short to medium-term cellaring.

Production
Les Combottes in Pernand-Vergelesses is known for its cool Burgundy terroir, where limestone and marl soils help preserve freshness and bring tension to Chardonnay. The vineyard’s exposure and climate encourage slow, even ripening, producing grapes with good aromatic definition and natural acidity. Vinification is typically carried out with careful handling to preserve the wine’s delicate fruit and mineral profile, often emphasizing texture and finesse rather than overt oak character.

Food & Serving
This Chardonnay pairs beautifully with shellfish, roast chicken, creamy poultry dishes, grilled fish, or Burgundy classics such as escargots and soft-ripened cheeses. Serve chilled at around 10–12°C. Decanting is not usually necessary, though a brief aeration can help open the wine if enjoyed in its youth.
