Domaine Pillot

Chassagne-Montrachet

The Pillot origins date back to the 17th Century in Chassagne, where they worked the vines, the wine and above all made barrels. And it was in the 19th century that the Pillot family abandoned the cooperage and enlarged the property on the slopes of Chassagne-Montrachet.

Fernand and his son Laurent, the 4th generation, extended the estate again in 1992, then in 2001 with the takeover of the Pothier-Rieusset vines in Pommard. Today, the estate covers 14.8 ha of vines for a total of 22 appellations. The plots of vines are mainly concentrated in Chassagne-Montrachet and Pommard, but also in the terroirs of Santeany, Saint-Aubin, Puligny-Montrachet, Meursault, Volnay and Beaune.

All the wines are vinified by reconciling modernity and respect for traditions as well as secular terroirs. The vines are worked in agrobiology with great care and the soils cultivated without the use of chemical herbicides.
