2023 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Grande Montagne, Domaine Paul Pillot

2023 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Grande Montagne, Domaine Paul Pillot

Cellar Circle Exclusive

Like Les Grandes Ruchottes, this is a highly-prized wine of the Pillot cellar, and made in similarly tiny volumes. The vineyard sits at the top of the hill, and this wine has a cool, restrained composure, with a statuesque presence.

Tasting notes

Still in barrel. Pale colour, and with fully ripe aromatics. Picked at the perfect moment, and there is a superb backbone once again, this extraordinary mix of just ripe and aromatically generous. The flesh is once again beautifully understated but totally present. Drink from 2030-2038. Tasted Nov 2024. 5 stars.
