Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc 1er Cru "Les Vergers" 2022 | Wine from Domaine Jean-Marc Pillot
The Domaine Jean-Marc Pillot, located in Chassagne-Montrachet, is a key reference in Burgundy. Since taking over the family estate in 1991, Jean-Marc has infused new energy, combining tradition and innovation. Under the watchful eye of his father Jean-Marc, Antonin carries out meticulous work in the vineyards, and his mastery of winemaking allows him to produce wines of remarkable finesse and complexity.
Antonin is now taking care of the domain with the help and the advices of Jean-Marc; The white wines are more and more pure and the reds have gained in term of precision.
The Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc 1er Cru "Les Vergers" 2022 is made from 100% Chardonnay, cultivated on the heights of Chassagne, in the emblematic vineyard of Les Vergers. This prestigious terroir, located near Clos Saint-Marc, benefits from rich clay-limestone soils and an ideal exposure for optimal grape maturation.
With an alcohol content of 13.5%, this vintage stands out for its perfect balance between concentration, liveliness, and elegance, reflecting the excellence of the terroir and the expertise of Jean-Marc Pillot.
The Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc 1er Cru "Les Vergers" 2022 charms with its bright golden robe and crystalline brilliance.
On the nose, it unfolds a complex and sophisticated aromatic palette, blending notes of grapefruit, tangerine, red currant, iris, and buddleia. Subtle touches of wood smoke and white pepper add a fascinating depth.
On the palate, this wine is superbly concentrated, while maintaining a lively freshness. The aromas of citrus and berries blend with a subtle minerality, featuring nuances of chalk, sea salt, and a delicate hint reminiscent of shellfish essence. The finish is long, precise, and of great purity, showcasing an elegance worthy of the grands crus.
For cheese lovers, it pairs beautifully with an aged Comté or a truffled Brillat-Savarin. This wine will also complement vegetarian dishes, such as a Jerusalem artichoke velouté or a leek gratin with parmesan.
This wine can be enjoyed now for its freshness and liveliness, but it will reveal its full complexity after 5 to 10 years of aging in a suitable cellar.
