Drink it now or cellar for up to 10 years. No need to decant but best to open it half an hour before service. Located in savigny-les-beaune, in the cote d'or, burgundy, domaine jean-jacques girard is a family-run winery with a long tradition that spans over 5 centuries. Today, the estate, which extends for about 15 hectares of vineyards, is in the hands of jean-jacques girard, who runs it with the help of his wife agnès and their son vincent. The company, which practices sustainable agriculture, produces high-quality wines from 22 appellations that include several premiers and grands crus. The chardonnay grapes are sourced from vineyards located in the commune of pernand-vergelesses. After vinification, the finished wine rests in oak barrels for 10 months before bottling. Pernand-vergelesses les belles filles shows a bright straw yellow color. On the nose, it reveals a delicate aromatic profile with a fresh bouquet made of white flowers and juicy apples, followed by some mineral notes. On the palate, it is soft and elegant with a good concentration of fruit and a well-balanced acidity. The finish is long and persistent. This wine is an excellent choice for a classy aperitif and it makes a great match with seafood or pan-fried veal sweetbreads.
