Description
Puligny Montrachet and Chassagne Montrachet are located at the center of the four villages that make up the part of the Côte de Beaune region known as the Côte des Blancs (Meursault, Blagny, Chassagne, and Puligny). This area earned this name for the quality and prestige of its white wines. Bâtard-Montrachet lies at the confluence of the villages of Puligny Montrachet and Chassagne Montrachet, directly bordering Montrachet. It is exposed to the east and lies on a terroir composed of chalky soil. It is also the largest of the five Grands Crus.
The 2021 Alvina Pernot Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru is an exceptional white Burgundy from one of the most prestigious Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte de Beaune. This wine reflects the dedication of Alvina Pernot, granddaughter of Paul Pernot, who combines a modern vision with the classic traditions of the family business. The Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet vineyard is renowned and located in Puligny-Montrachet, bordering the famous Bâtard-Montrachet vineyard. It boasts chalky soil with a perfect balance of minerals, contributing to the wine's refinement and minerality. Its eastern-facing position ensures optimal sun exposure and grape ripeness. The vineyard boasts very low yields, resulting in concentrated and expressive wines. The wine is made using traditional methods with a focus on precision and finesse. It's aged in French oak barrels (some new), which adds complexity and structure without overshadowing the terroir. This is a 1.5-liter magnum—even more delicious, festive, and with a longer drinking window.
Color: Pale gold with shimmering green accents.
Nose: Refined aromas of white flowers, citrus, pear and ripe apple, complemented by subtle notes of vanilla, roasted nuts and a delicate minerality.
Palate: Elegant yet powerful, with a silky texture and vibrant acidity. The flavors of citrus, white stone fruit, and light buttery notes are supported by a pronounced minerality typical of this Grand Cru.
Finish: Long, complex and harmonious, with a perfect balance between freshness and richness.
The 2021 Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru goes well with:
- Exclusive fish dishes such as turbot with beurre blanc.
- Lobster and other rich crustaceans.
- Risotto with truffle or mushrooms.
- Mature cheeses such as Comté or a soft brie.
FACT: The wine is stored in our climate-controlled Wine Warehouse, and if you pick it up, you'll often receive a nice discount. You'll see your discount immediately when you choose Pickup at the checkout page. We're located right next to the Rijksweg with ample parking. Click here for our address.

The 2020 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has turned out especially well, offering up aromas of pear, orange oil, white flowers and buttered toast, followed by a full-bodied, rich and satiny palate that's textural but vibrant, underpinned by lively acids and chalky structuring extract. Concluding with a saline finish, it will merit some bottle age.
Alvina Pernot was awaiting the imminent birth of her latest child when I visited, so I tasted this year with her husband Philippe at their new winery on Puligny's Rue de Bois, a facility that will give them all the space they need to master the élevage and, increasingly, the pressing of the fruit that produces their wines. Readers will recall that, after working for three years at her grandfather's Domaine Paul Pernot, Alvina and Philippe had set up a tiny domaine & maison in Puligny-Montrachet. All of their 2018 vintage was produced from Alvina's share of the Pernot family holdings, but only the Puligny-Montrachet La Rue Aux Vaches was harvested and pressed (vertically) in house, as the rest of the cuvées come from Domaine Paul Pernot in must; that held true in 2019 too, though the range was supplemented by several new appellations, the result of exchanges with other growers. In 2020, this label's most successful vintage to date, La Rue Aux Vaches is joined by another Puligny lieu-dit cuvée that's pressed in house, the Clos des Noyers Brets. Within the Pernot holdings, Alvina and her husband favor earlier-picked fruit and higher-altitude parcels, but it's these cuvées that are harvested and pressed in house that really give the measure of what we can expect in the years to come. Readers will note that all the wines are bottled under high-quality natural cork.

From: Servants of the Seasons: Burgundy 2021 (Jan 2023)
The 2021 Bâtard-Montrachet Grand Cru has a more complex and engaging bouquet compared to the Bienvenues, with scents of citrus peel, lime and orange pith, a little more mineralité although it seems less intense than the Les Pucelles. The palate is very well balanced with flecks of white chocolate on the entry; the taut acidity keeps the tension dialed up throughout. There are lovely spicy notes, stem ginger and lemongrass on the finish that shows quite a bit of extract that lends complexity and length. Excellent.

“We just have a few Premier Crus,” Philippe Abadie, husband of Alvina Pernot, tells me as I survey the depleted line-up of nine cuvées. This is a producer I introduced in last year’s report, and like 12 months ago, they graciously permit a Sunday visit, thereby affording time to have a quick scout around the brand new winery that was a building site last year. I could admire the chichi black-painted walls and a comfortable tasting room with a tasteful arboreal mural. “We lost 100% in Chalumeaux and Clos des Folatières because of the frost,” Abadie continues, “There are usually 60 barrels of the Folatières, but there were just nine. We tried to use candles in the Village and Premier Cru, but Folatières is just too steep. Nevertheless, we have started to separate the Bourgogne Côte d’Or, one from around the winery [Rue de Bois] and the other, Les Femelottes. We started the picking on 20 September, which was difficult as there were hardly any bunches, plus there was rot that needed sorting. We used a vertical press for the parcels that we work ourselves, which is better for pressing small volumes. We are satisfied with the quality here. The bottling was done at the end of September.”
This is an impressive set of wines that don’t follow the Burgundy hierarchy. The two outstanding cuvées are the riveting Puligny-Montrachet Les Pucelles and a superb Village from Clos des Noyers Bret that both dare to outshine their Corton-Charlemagne and Bienvenues. Quantities are very small, but rest assured that I will have over 20 cuvées to taste through next year. Maybe I will need another quiet Sunday morning.

Alvina Pernot is een getalenteerde wijnmaakster uit Puligny-Montrachet, Bourgogne, en kleindochter van de gerenommeerde wijnmaker Paul Pernot. In 2018 richtte ze samen met haar echtgenoot Philippe Abadie Domaine Alvina Pernot op, met als doel wijnen te creëren die hun eigen visie op het Bourgondische terroir weerspiegelen.
Het domein begon met de productie van 9.000 flessen in het eerste oogstjaar 2018 en heeft sindsdien zijn assortiment uitgebreid. Alvina en Philippe selecteren zorgvuldig percelen, voornamelijk uit de familiewijngaarden van Domaine Paul Pernot & Ses Fils, om wijnen te produceren die de diversiteit en kwaliteit van de Côte de Beaune-regio benadrukken.
Hun aanbod omvat onder andere Bourgogne Côte d'Or, Saint-Romain Village, Puligny-Montrachet Vieilles Vignes, Meursault 1er Cru La Pièce Sous le Bois en verschillende Premier Cru en Grand Cru wijnen uit Puligny-Montrachet. Alvina streeft naar wijnen met meer spanning en frisheid door druiven te selecteren van hoger gelegen percelen en eerder te oogsten.
Domaine Alvina Pernot heeft snel een reputatie opgebouwd voor het produceren van wijnen met een unieke stijl die zowel de traditie als innovatie binnen de Bourgondische wijnbouw weerspiegelen. Het domein blijft groeien en biedt een scala aan wijnen die de essentie van het terroir van de Côte de Beaune vastleggen.
