2019 Chassagne-Montrachet Rouge 1er Cru Clos-St-Jean, Jean-Marc Pillot

2019 Chassagne-Montrachet Rouge 1er Cru Clos-St-Jean, Jean-Marc Pillot

This is a brilliant example of what Pinot Noir can do in Chassagne. The poor soils of Clos St Jean have long been one of the hotspots for Pinot in the village, and Jean-Marc counts himself lucky to have inherited this parcel of 100+ year old vines. He likes to make a gourmand style you can approach from youth, but don’t let that make you think this is lacking in concentration or sophistication. It is dark and spicy, with soft, sweet tannins, and a staggering concentration - you can feel the small volume of old vine fruit here.
