Chassagne Montrachet 2018 "Les Mazures" Paul Pillot
Domaine Paul Pillot
Vintage 2018 : (89 - 91)/100 Parker
Reviewed by William Kelley - 13th Feb 2020 : "More mineral and incisive than its communal sibling, the 2018 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Mazures offers up notes of pear, white flowers and almond paste. Medium to full-bodied and delicately textural, this hails from a superior lieu-dit below the premier cru Champs Gain."
Presentation : The 12-hectare Domaine Paul Pillot has been directed since 2004 by the young and dynamic Thierry Pillot. The vines in the domaine's enviable palette of holdings are farmed organically, though not yet certified as such, and the wines they produce are matured for some 18 months on the lees, the final six being spent in stainless steel. Percentages of new wood are modest, with plenty of larger-format 350-liter barrels, and the lees are never stirred. Characterful, elegantly textural and mouthwateringly incisive, these are superb white Burgundies, and to my mind, Pillot is one of a handful of exciting producers who win Chassagne-Montrachet the title of Burgundy's most interesting white wine-producing village today.
