"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.

Expert opinion
Bettane & Desseauve
Wine rated (2016 guide) 15/20 (Very good wine)
Domaine rated (2016 guide) 2*Stars (A serious and recommendable production, but a little more regular and homogeneous than the previous one)
About the domain :
The estate was founded by René Lamy (Hubert's son), who bought land in Chassagne and Saint Aubin. He set up an estate which he passed on to his daughter Florence and son-in-law Sébasien. The latter have been at the helm for the last four or five vintages, while never forgetting the advice of the previous generation.
Guide Hachette des vins
Domaine rated (guide 2016) Awarded wines (The wines of this producer are regularly awarded by the guide)
About the domain :
In 1977, René and Thérèse Lamy created this estate, a sure bet in Chassagne and Saint-Aubin. Their daughters Florence (in 1997) and Karine (in 2004) now manage the 15ha of vines with their respective husbands, Sébastien Caillat (in the vineyard) and Daniel Cadot (in sales).

About the domain :
A family-run business par excellence, Domaine Lamy-Pillot cultivates 14.5ha with a series of fine 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-domain), the domaine produces beautiful, clean, modern whites that show great consistency. Karine, the eldest daughter, and her husband Daniel, distribute the wines and market a selection of Burgundy estates.
