Domaine Lamy-Pillot - Chassagne-Montrachet 2012
14/20
RVF
The low yields of the 2012 vintage have produced a Chassagne-Montrachet white with beautiful aromatic concentration. With aromas of white flowers such as acacia and hawthorn, accompanied by a buttery touch, it will age well in the cellar and develop honeyed notes.

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated estate (2016 guide) 2 stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
The estate was founded by René Lamy (son of Hubert), who purchased land in Chassagne and Saint Aubin. He built up the property, which he passed on to his daughter Florence and son-in-law Sébasien. They have been running the estate for four to five vintages, while still heeding the advice of the previous generation.

About the estate:
A family-run estate par excellence, Domaine Lamy-Pillot cultivates 14.5 hectares of beautiful plots in Chassagne-Montrachet. Now run by one of the daughters, Florence, and her husband Sébastien, an oenologist (they have also set up a 2-hectare micro-estate), the estate produces beautiful, clean, modern white wines that are consistently excellent. Karine, the eldest daughter, and her husband Daniel, are responsible for distributing the wines and marketing a selection of Burgundy estates.
