"The 2019 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Morgeot Clos de la Chapelle (Duc de Magenta) is another success, offering aromas of crunchy stone fruit, orange oil, buttery toast, struck flint and iodine. Medium- to full-bodied, deep and complete, it's satiny, layered and textured, with lively acids and a long, expansive finish." (Wine Advocate 2022).

Located in the southern part of the Côte de Beaune, the Chassagne-Montrachet appellation produces mainly white wines renowned for their exceptional aromatic expression and length on the palate. Notes of herbal tea, flowers and spices on the nose lead to a full, mature palate ideally supported by freshness and acidity. Incredible harmony.

91/100 Robert Parker
"The Chassagne-Montrachet 2014 Les Battaudes, made from clay soils and aged 30% in new barrels, has a fragrant nose of white flowers, white peach and a hint of Japanese yuzu - all well-defined and nicely integrated with the wood. The palate is vibrant on the attack, with crisp acidity, notes of orange peel and a hint of mulberry leaf. The acidity, well gauged and carrying a certain harmony and refinement on the finish, almost makes you think of a Premier Cru. Excellent." (Wine Advocate 2016 - Robert Parker)

16,5/20 RVF
With this 2013 vintage, Domaine Lamy-Pillot reveals "the grace and finesse of Morgeot, all mineral lace and subtle length" ( Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2016 - RVF) Halfway between smoothness and tension, this well-balanced cuvée is a worthy representative of the cru.
Domaine Lamy-Pillot - Pot Bois 2013
14/20 Bettane & Desseauve
The Pots Bois vines are grown on very draining, stony soils. As a result, this wine has vigor, tonicity and a notable iodine freshness. The most mineral of Domaine Lamy-Pillot's cuvées.
Domaine Lamy-Pillot - Chassagne-Montrachet 2012
4.3/5 (3 reviews)
14/20 RVF
The low yields of the 2012 vintage have produced a Chassagne-Montrachet blanc of fine aromatic concentration. With aromas of white flowers such as acacia and hawthorn, accompanied by a touch of butter, it will keep well in the cellar and develop honeyed notes.

2*Coup de Coeur Hachette
"If whites are tending to supplant reds in Chassagne, it's a pinot noir that puts this estate in the middle of the Morgeot vineyards in the limelight, for a wine made from a plot adjoining the winery. The jurors praised the wine's deep purple color, its intense nose with hints of ripe cherry and blackcurrant, and its frank, generous attack, which opens onto a fleshy, well-structured palate: all the assets needed for happy aging". (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2016)

Produced from the vines closest to the estate, Premier Cru Morgeot rouge 2013 gives off lovely notes of fresh red fruit. It is above all this freshness that characterizes this cuvée with its silky tannic structure.
Domaine Lamy-Pillot - 1er Cru La Grande Montagne 2013
15/20 RVF
-
15/20 Bettane & Desseauve
"Grande Montagne concentrates more of its substance, including an acidity that nicely lengthens the wine." (Le Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France 2016 - RVF) It's thanks to an abrupt, high-altitude, rocky terroir that this Premier Cru displays this beautiful mineral tension. It is the perfect accompaniment to gourmet dishes based on noble fish or shellfish.
