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.

Professional Reviews

Burghound

BH 93
"Smoky white orchard fruit aromas are liberally laced with citrus confit nuances that are picked up by the very intense, detailed and stony medium-bodied flavors that possess slightly better depth and persistence on the clean, dry and youthfully austere finale. This well-made effort is quite good and worth considering." -Allen Meadows

Antonio Galloni

AG 90
"The 2020 Saint-Aubin Les Charmois 1er Cru has a nicely detailed bouquet with one of the most mineral-driven aromatics from Pillot this year. The palate is well defined with a slightly reduced opening, good weight, though it is just missing some mineralité on the finish." -Neal Martin

Robert Parker

RP 92
"Aromas of pear, Meyer lemon, hazelnuts and nutmeg introduce the 2020 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Charmois, a medium to full-bodied, racy and precise wine with an elegantly fleshy core of fruit, tangy acids and a chalky finish. This, too, is very promising." -William Kelley

Decanter

D 94
"An impressive, citrus-scented wine, with saline mineral notes and a texture that has surprising depth, persistence, and length. The domaine owns the parcel of 50-year-old, east-facing vines just south of En Remilly which produced this delicious wine. The wine was fermented on native yeasts in 350-litre casks (10% new)." -Charles Curtis, MW
