The Perrachon family has been involved in the wine trade since 1601. Today, the fifth (Martine and Laurent) and sixth (Maxime and Adrien) generation run the domaine, which started producing estate wines in 1877. The domaine consists of 26 hectares in six Beaujolais Crus: Juliénas (where they are based), Morgon, Moulin-à-Vent, Fleurie, Chenas, and Saint-Amour. In addition to the Crus, the family also makes Beaujolais and Beaujolais-Villages; red, white and rosé. All grapes are hand-harvested and the wines are made traditionally with great care to express the terroir they come from.

Domaine des Perelles Beaujolais Blanc is made from 100% Chardonnay grown in clay and limestone soils, fermented in stainless steel and aged in tank for six months. Mid gold color in the glass. Enticing aromas of freshly baked apples, key lime, white flowers and brown butter plume from the glass. On the palate, the wine shows a tightly wound mineral core that complements flavors of Bartlett Pear, Golden Delicious apple, walnuts and pie crust. It is textured and full-bodied with lovely energy and lift on the finish. Enjoy this wonderful Beaujolais Blanc with brined and grilled turkey breasts alongside blistered green beans.
