Don't bother. Sure Puligny-Montrachet on the label drew my attention, but if tasted blind, this Chardonnay would be forgettable. Not all Puligny-Montrachets are equal. Some wineries, like Paul Pernot, charge premium prices for average quality wine simply by leveraging the Premier Cru reputation of the famous commune.

This wine is so satisfying, glides along, easy and pleasing. Sometimes I just want to sip and smile, not think about what I'm drinking, but nonetheless enjoying the moment: this is that kind of wine. I enjoy Muscadet. This Domaine des Amoureux Muscadet Sèvre et Maine Sur Lie will never win prizes except from me, fulfilling the very reason why I drink wine, the pleasure, the enjoyment of fermented grapes. I'm buying more. Super QPR!

I love that Morgan, Chris, and their team make consistently delicious wines while preserving and restoring historic vineyards. It makes for wines that satisfy my tastebuds, brain, and soul.

Silky smooth, mouth coating in a delicate way, medium density - not heavy, yet present and additive. A wonderful wine to imbibe.
