Paul Pillot, run today by Thierry and Chrystelle Pillot from Chassagne-Montrachet, farms 1.5 hectares for this cuvée, part on estate-owned land in Chassagne and the rest across the Côte Chalonnaise to the south. As with all the whites here, the grapes are whole-bunch pressed and fermented on indigenous yeasts. The wine then spends time on its lees, without stirring, in a mix of stainless steel tanks and older oak barrels: the tanks preserve the freshness and cut that make Aligoté worth drinking, while the barrels build a little mid-palate richness and texture. The result is crystalline and racy rather than lean, and a reminder of what the variety can do in good hands.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrink over the next three or four years. Serve at 10-12°C with oysters, a plate of charcuterie or gougères.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
