"Pillot rarely misses these days and his growing mastery shows in the quality of his 2019s." -Burghound
What makes Pillot’s wines so captivating is their unmatched purity and crystalline character.
Simply put, the 2019 is a white Burgundy vintage of consequence. The wines have a gripping intensity and good focus. I like the combination of punch and brightness in the wines.
As Burghound's note makes clear, Pillot's 2019s are very impressive. The wines have a saturating minerality and beautiful precision.
Today, I'm happy to offer a modest parcel of Thierry Pillot's 2019 St. Aubin Le Ban.
Saint Aubin has long been a home for Burgundy value seekers. Few villages can compete with the layered depth and steely verve that Saint Aubin delivers for the price. At $46.95, the 2019 Le Ban offers a lot for the price.
The 2019 Le Ban flaunts a length and focus that makes it a thrilling bottle. Amid the volume and punch there's an etched detail and luminous stony minerality that provides even more interest. Please note: The Thierry Pillot label is his small, quality-obsessed negociant project.
Pillot stands as one of Burgundy's most exciting and thoughtful winemakers. His 2019s show the wines firing on all cylinders. I'm happy to offer one of the great values of the range at sharp pricing.
