Organic Jean-marc Pillot Chassagne-montrachet Blanc 1er Cru 'morgeot - Les Fairendes' 2023 (pre-arrival) [best Value] [KdZfDt3u]

A “vineyard within a vineyard,” Les Fairendes is the prime filet of the southern-Chassagne premier cru of Morgeot; poorer topsoil here facilitates a more profound mineral expression than is found in its surrounding area. Pillot owns a quarter-hectare of 50-year-old-vines here, and he has purposefully begun harvesting it slightly earlier the past few vintages to counterbalance the intense richness this site tends to engender. Les Fairendes delivers an appealing combination of textural generosity and firm acidity that characterizes the overall house style here.
