Saint Aubin Pitangerets, Paul Pillot 2022

This premier cru is located at the base of the slope, on the border with Chassagne; Thierry Pillot notes that the soil is rife with limestone pebbles. The terroir has produced a wine in 2022 with alluring tropical fruit aromas and hints of linden flowers, smoke and spice. The texture is rich and dense, but a lively acidity draws the wine to a lingering finish. The domaine farms a half-hectare here, which Pillot ferments in used casks both large and small to deliver this winning wine. (Drink between 2025-2045)
