Olivier Leflaive, Pernand-Vergelesses Blanc, 2022

Olivier Leflaive’s Pernand-Vergelesses Blanc 2022 is a beautifully poised white Burgundy that brings together freshness, precision, and the refined character this village is known for. Made in the heart of Bourgogne, it reflects both the elegance of Chardonnay and the producer’s talent for crafting wines with clarity and balance.

Tasting Notes
Pale gold in the glass, this wine typically shows a clean, luminous appearance that hints at its youthful energy. The nose is likely to offer bright citrus, green apple, white flowers, and subtle notes of almond or wet stone, with a delicate oak influence if used in élevage. On the palate, expect a fresh and focused style with crisp acidity, fine texture, and a mineral-driven finish. The wine should be medium-bodied rather than opulent, making it appealing now for its vibrancy while also having the structure to develop more complexity over the next few years.

Production
Pernand-Vergelesses sits in a cooler, more sheltered part of the Côte de Beaune, where limestone-rich soils help preserve freshness and bring out the wine’s mineral tension. Grapes are typically harvested by hand in Burgundy, with careful sorting to ensure only healthy fruit is selected. Vinification is usually aimed at preserving purity and terroir expression, often with fermentation and ageing in oak to add subtle roundness without overshadowing the fruit.

Food & Serving
This Blanc pairs wonderfully with shellfish, grilled fish, roasted chicken, creamy poultry dishes, and goat’s cheese. Serve it chilled at around 10–12°C to showcase its freshness and detail. Decanting is generally not necessary, though a short time in the glass can help the wine open up if enjoyed young.

Producer
Olivier Leflaive is one of Burgundy’s most respected white wine producers, known for precision, elegance, and a deep commitment to showcasing the character of individual appellations. Based in Puligny-Montrachet, the house has built a strong reputation for high-quality Chardonnay across the Côte de Beaune. Over the years, it has become especially admired for wines that balance regional identity with consistent craftsmanship.
