Thierry Pillot has, over the past two decades, pushed Domaine Paul Pillot into the front rank of Chassagne whites, and Champs-Gain is one of the cuvées that made his name. The site sits in the middle of the Chassagne premier cru run, planted on a mix of light gravelly soil and deeper clay, with the Caillerets slope rising above. Pillot's house style is all about precision and low-intervention winemaking with a light touch of new oak, and the 2020 is exactly that: medium to full-bodied, with peach, pear, toasted nuts and white flowers framed by bright, saline acidity. A near-perfect snapshot of what makes Pillot one of Chassagne's most exciting addresses today.

"Here too there is a touch of smoke character to the ripe aromas of mostly acacia blossom that is liberally laced with citrus and rosemary oil. There is a similarly beguiling texture to the utterly delicious medium-bodied flavors that possess fine richness as well as very solid depth and persistence on the clean, dry and balanced finish. Champ Gains can easily be overly heavy and lacking grace in white, but this is lovely."

"The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Champs Gains 1er Cru feels a little more backward compared to the Les Mazures at the moment. The palate is well balanced with orange rind and mandarin on the entry, quite compact and just missing a little flair on the finish." —Neal Martin

"Unwinding in the glass with scents of peach, pear, toasted nuts and white flowers, the 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Champs Gain is medium to full-bodied, rich and layered, with lively acids and a long, saline finish. It's one of the more gourmand wines in the range this year." —William Kelley

More about Domaine Paul Pillot

Thierry Pillot is killing it! He is a super-talented vigneron, and since he has taken over his family's domain the quality has gone through the roof. He is one of those rare characters who is equally good at making red and white wines.

They have 13 hectares of vines in the domaine, 1/3 red and 2/3 white. The whites are very concentrated because of the frost and the reds are supple and elegant, really classic. Like many young vignerons, Thierry has also set up a micro-negociant under his own name.
