The Pillot family has deep roots in Chassagne Montrachet, with Jean Marc taking over the domaine in 1991. Today, his son Antonin is increasingly involved in the running of the estate, bringing a fresh perspective to both vineyard management and winemaking. The domaine farms around 15 hectares across the Côte de Beaune, with a particular reputation for its expressive whites and increasingly sought after reds. Recent changes include earlier picking, a move towards larger barrels and a more considered use of new oak, all aimed at preserving freshness and vineyard character.

Clos Saint Jean is one of the domaine's standout red Burgundy parcels, an old vineyard covering approximately 0.4 hectares. The 2023 was picked relatively early to retain freshness, with the fruit producing a Pinot Noir of remarkable balance and aromatic detail. Red berries and wild strawberry are layered with rose petal and delicate spice, while fine, integrated tannins provide structure without overwhelming the fruit. There is an appealing combination of elegance and concentration, finishing long, fresh and savoury.
