Pernot Belicard

Philippe is runing this small 6ha domaine in Puligny that is responsible for some really exciting bottles from the Aligote all the way to the top 1er crus from Puligny. One of the early pickers in the village, the wines are usually harvested by hand and pressed whole clusters, extracting some fine tannins that will allow them to develop and age in bottle.

Lead by Lyne Marchive from 1970's until 2018, the domaine passed through a series of improvements and grew considerably in size to its current 29 hectares.
Since 2019 the vineyards are grown organically, and before that the family practiced sustainable agriculture since 1950's.

The wines are barrel fermented with indigenous yeast, and aged on the fine lees between 7-12 months in stainless steel tanks. There is a light filtration to avoid any cloudiness.

Most of the developments on the domaine were introduced by Gabriel Tortochot the third generation of the family to grow vines in Gevrey. His Daughter Chantal took over the domaine in 1997, and nowadays Sylvain Pataille from Marsannay has been involved in the production helping Chantal in the vineyards and winery, that is noticeable on the 2016 and 2017 vintages.
