With this 2013 vintage, Domaine Lamy-Pillot reveals “the grace and finesse of Morgeot, with its delicate mineral notes and subtle length” (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2016 – RVF) Striking a balance between richness and tension, this well-balanced cuvée is a worthy representative of the cru.

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated wine (2016 guide) 15.5/20 + Editor's Choice (Very good wine)
Rated (2016 guide): 2 stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous vintage)
About the wine:
A smooth attack, with a palate that offers pure, elegant tension.
About the estate:
The estate traces its origins to René Lamy (Hubert’s son), who purchased land in Chassagne and Saint-Aubin. He thus established an estate that he passed on to his daughter Florence and his son-in-law Sébasien. The two have been running the estate independently for the past four to five vintages, while still heeding the advice of the previous generation.

Their daughters, Florence (in 1997) and Karine (in 2004), now manage the 15 hectares of vineyards alongside their respective husbands, Sébastien Caillat (in the vineyard) and Daniel Cadot (in sales).

Wine rated (2016 guide) 16,5/20 (Very good wine)
Rated estate (2016 guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)
About the wine:
The grace and finesse of the Morgeot—less powerful than the 2012, with delicate mineral notes and a subtle finish.
About the estate:
A quintessential family-run estate, Domaine Lamy-Pillot cultivates 14.5 hectares across a series of beautiful plots in Chassagne-Montrachet. Now run by one of the daughters, Florence, and her husband Sébastien, an oenologist (they have also established a 2-hectare micro-winery on the side), the estate produces beautiful, crisp, clean, and modern white wines that demonstrate remarkable consistency. Karine, the eldest daughter, and her husband Daniel handle the distribution of the wines and market a selection of Burgundy estates.
