Domaine Paul Pillot Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru La Grande Montagne 2021 [NET]
The highest-altitude Premier Cru in Chassagne-Montrachet—almost more Puligny in style, with tension, lemony tang, and crushed-chalk minerality. La Grande Montagne's soils are mostly limestone with very little clay, and the elevation keeps things cool, bright, and focused. Thierry Pillot uses no new oak here (0%), letting the site speak without wood influence. Aged 12 months in 350-liter barrels, then six months in tank. The 2021 vintage—mineral and driving—is a natural fit for this vineyard's personality.
