Jean-Marc Pillot Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc 1er Cru “Les Baudines” 2020

Les Baudines occupies a unique position within Chassagne-Montrachet, lying at the extreme south of the appellation (adjacent to Santenay) at the very highest point on the slope. Jean-Marc owns a 0.15-hectare sliver in this well-drained, less sun-drenched vineyard, and the wine he produces from here is always his most purely mineral-driven. Less overtly intense than the Les Caillerets above, this presents a cool, stony personality and moderates its sense of electricity with a texture more subdued and elegant.
