This is the Pillots’ largest premier cru, and it lies just up the road from their cellar. It is the emblematic cuvée of the domaine, and a brilliant buy every vintage. The 2023 has great tension and saline length, with a nervous energy that lingers long after tasting.
The brisk and bright 2023 Chassagne-Montrachet Clos Saint-Jean 1er Cru has a more Puligny-like bouquet that stands apart from Pillot's Chassagnes: hints of fresh pear and Granny Smiths blend with petrichor. The palate is fresh, taut and well defined with lovely salinity. Just a hint of lemon and orange rind emerges on the finish, giving way to a spicy aftertaste. Excellent.
Mid lemon yellow. Quite restrained, but not so tight. All in white fruit, more floral even, with a different sort of electricity. Lively and quite persistent. Drink from 2028-2033. Tasted Nov 2024.
