The 2023 Domaine Lamy-Pillot Chassagne-Montrachet Blanc is a classic white Burgundy from one of the Côte de Beaune’s most respected family estates. Sourced from vineyards surrounding the renowned village of Chassagne-Montrachet, this Chardonnay combines concentration and texture with freshness and mineral precision, capturing the distinctive character of this celebrated appellation.
The nose is expressive and refined, revealing aromas of lemon zest, white peach and ripe pear alongside notes of white flowers, toasted hazelnut and subtle oak spice. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with a silky texture, vibrant acidity and layered flavours of citrus, orchard fruit and delicate brioche. A mineral thread runs throughout, leading to a long, focused and elegant finish.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent choice for lovers of premium white Burgundy seeking both richness and finesse. Its balance of fruit, texture and freshness makes it a superb match for lobster, scallops, roast chicken, grilled seafood or creamy mushroom dishes. Enjoy now for its youthful vibrancy or cellar over the next 8–12 years as additional complexity and depth emerge.
