The Meursault Genevrières 2018 from Thierry Pillot is a Premier Cru white Burgundy crafted from Chardonnay grapes exclusively sourced from the Meursault Genevrières Premier Cru vineyard. At approximately 0.30 hectares, Pillot`s domaine maintains a specific parcel in the lower section, noted for its light, stony clay-limestone soils. This vintage presents an aromatic profile featuring ripe citrus, white peach and floral notes, alongside subtle toasted almond nuances. The palate demonstrates a precise balance of fruit and mineral tension, culminating in a long, refined finish.

Thierry Pillot
Though successful as winemaker at the family property, Domaine Paul Pillot, Thierry Pillot established his tiny négociant operation several years ago and rapidly garnered widespread acclaim for his small but impressive portfolios of wines. His wines are supremely terroir-driven and characterful, produced from organically farmed (uncertified) vines and with minimal new oak usage.
Making wonderful wines under his own label from some of the finest parcels of Chassagne-Montrachet, Santenay and St. Aubin, Thierry Pillot is a thoughtful winemaker who favours tension and crystalline purity, often eschewing more interventionist techniques and new oak to give the wines greater transparency.
