“Bursting with aromas of sweet red berries, peonies, orange zest and spices, Pillot’s 2021 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Clos Saint-Jean Rouge is medium to full-bodied, fleshy and seamless, with a layered, complete profile, melting tannins and a perfumed finish. 91-93pts.”
William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
“The red from Pillot’s Clos St-Jean is a real treat, with concentrated plummy fruit scented with wilted rose petals, earth, and bramble. There is vibrant acidity, firm tannin, and no lack of intensity, yet there is elegance also. The combination of power and finesse made me write ‘almost bonnes-mares-ish’ in my musings.” 94pts.”
Charles Curtis MW, Decanter
