2023 Chassagne-Montrachet, Jean-Marc Pillot

2023 Chassagne-Montrachet, Jean-Marc Pillot

This is from three of the village’s best communal sites: Les Pierres (94-year-old vines), Mazures (40+), and Houillères (30+). The younger vines give lift, elegance and a vibrant drive, while the older vines give depth and power. It shows a pretty, slightly floral scent on the nose, with a fresh, energetic drive of acidity on the palate.

Tasting notes

Attractive pale colour. The bouquet is reticent with fresh citrus, and some leesy minerals. Definitely some citrus notes on the palate too along with white apple fruit, good length, well balanced, white wine terroirs. Drink from 2026-2029. Tasted Oct 2024.
