Domaine Jean-Marc Pillot Santenay Rouge Les Champs-Claude 2019

Pillot owns a sizable 1.4-hectare parcel of Pinot Noir planted in 1970 in this Santenay lieu-dit, and his gentle extraction (100% whole clusters, employing only pump-overs) and no-new-oak élévage allow the friendly, juicy red fruit to take center stage over the rusticity typical of this appellation. The wine offers spice-drenched flavors of mentholated cherry, with a sense of rippling energy and mouthwatering acidity.
