Our domain is quoted in several wine guides and specialized magazines like Revue des Vins de France. The latest to speak about us was :
Guide
Hachette 2002
"The Pellés have represented the Menetou-Salon appellation
since the 50's and have been mentioned in our guide since its first edition.
Since 1995, Anne Pellé and her enologist, Julien Zernott have run the estate.
Among the three wines of the domain mentioned in the 2000 vintage, the red
was the finest. A blend of equal parts wine aged in barrel and in tank,
it achieves a perfect marriage of intense fruit and wood, power and finesse.
The Morogues blanc was awarded one star and the Clos des Blanchais (which
was a "coup de coeur" in 1998) is mentioned."

to the Domaine Henry Pellé, producer of high quality wines in first class
appellations.
"Hard work in the vineyards and the cellars for three years has produced
a noticeable improvement in the quality of the wines from this very good
domain in Menetou-Salon. The cellar master, Julien Zernott has fully embarked
on a policy of seeking optimal ripeness and the expression of terroir, and
from their delicious fruity wines to the brilliant Clos des Blanchais, all
are of the same high standard."
Parker
Guide to the Wines of France :
"Menetou-Salon: this small appellation produces excellent
white wines from sauvignon blanc, medium-bodied rosés, herbaceous and spicy,
as well as reds from pinot noir. (…) The best producer in the appellation
is Henry Pellé."
