      Detailed Description

      The Domaine’s ‘Chassagne-Montrachet Morgeot Premier Cru’ typically evokes aromas of citrus fruits, white flowers, and stone fruits, along with a distinct minerality reflecting the limestone-rich soils of the region. On the palate, the wine tends to be rich and full-bodied, with well-integrated oak influence and a balanced acidity providing freshness and structure. While the 2021 vintage can be enjoyed young, it also has excellent aging potential.

      Producer Information

      In 1994, with a new winery just finished down by the route nationale in Chassagne-Montrachet, Fernand Pillot said to his son Laurent ”From now on you will make the wine. I will stay in the vineyards”. – I was 28, still young, says Laurent Pillot. For me it was a great opportunity, a great opportunity to learn and to improve. Working with the older generation can be good, but it can also put a lot of pressure on you. Pommard, Burgundy.Today’s Domaine Fernand & Laurent Pillot has vineyards in eight villages in the Côte de Beaune, from Beaune to the north to Santenay to the south. – Prior to my arrival at the domaine in 1988 my father had split the vineyards with his brother Jean, continues Laurent Pillot. At the time he had nine hectares of Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet, Saint-Aubin and Santenay. I got married in 1989 and after four years we quickly had to take on the five hectares of Pommard vines of my wife’s family. In 2001 we took on other vines from my wife’s uncle, half of Domaine Pothier-Rieusset. Chassagne-Montrachet, Burgundy.Over slightly more than a decade Domaine Fernand & Laurent Pillot had doubled in size, from nine hectares to 18. At this point they decided to sell of some of the parcels in the regional appellations which were not up to par, shrinking the domaine to 14.8 hectares. About half the domaine is red, the rest white. – In the 1990s I was not very happy with my reds, says Laurent Pillot. I was expecting more from my Pommards. The concentration was not good enough. Eventually I decided to change quite a few things in the vineyards in order to lower the yields. Began de-budding, green harvesting, de-leafing etc. Morgeot, Chassagne-Monrachet, Burgundy.– My father had done a very good job in the vineyards, but it was the 1980s so the yields were still a bit high. Altogether the domaine consists of 50 different parcels, distributed over 22 appellations. Focus is on Chassagne-Montrachet, where Laurent Pillot produces eight different cuvées – one red village appellation, one white village appellation, one red premier cru and five white premier crus. – My white village Chassagne-Montrachet mainly comes from La Bergerie and Le Chêne, says Laurent Pillot. Le Chêne I have quite a lot of. It is a parcel just below La Maltroie. La Bergerie is a bit further north, closer to the village. There is a light débourbage and the wine sees between 20 and 25 per cent new oak.
