The 2024 Domaine Lamy-Pillot Chassagne-Montrachet “Champs de Morgeot” Rouge is a distinctive 100% Pinot Noir from a domaine that remains notably committed to the historic red wines of Chassagne-Montrachet. The wine offers attractive aromas of red cherry, raspberry and blackberry, layered with floral notes, gentle spice and subtle earthy character. The domaine matures its reds for around 12 months in oak barrels.
On the palate, it is elegant yet generous, with juicy red and dark fruit, fine tannins and refreshing acidity. Savoury spice and delicate oak add complexity, while the finish remains polished and distinctly Burgundian. The style combines approachable fruit with enough structure to develop nicely in bottle.
Ben's Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a lovely choice for those wanting to explore the lesser-seen red side of Chassagne-Montrachet. Pair with roast duck, grilled lamb, roast chicken, beef or mushroom dishes. Enjoy young with some air or cellar for around 5–12 years.
