2023 St-Aubin 1er Cru Les Pitangerets, Domaine Paul Pillot

2023 St-Aubin 1er Cru Les Pitangerets, Domaine Paul Pillot

Cellar Circle Exclusive

Les Pitangerets straddles Chassagne-Montrachet and St-Aubin, and sits just above Les Chenevottes. It’s a St-Aubin of considerable tension, with the signature Pillot energy running through the middle. Racy and so long.

Tasting notes

The 2023 Saint-Aubin Pitangerets has a beguiling stony nose that unfurls in the glass, almost flinty. The palate is well balanced with a taut line of acidity, Granny Smiths mixed with lemon rind, lively and tensile on the bright finish. Excellent.

(90—92)/100

Mid lemon yellow, tight lemon skin nose, an austere St-Aubin from a notably stony soil. All the tension, not so much flesh, but then it appears further back on the palate. All very well folded in. Drink from 2027-2030. Tasted Nov 2024.
