Jean-Marc Pillot Santenay Rouge 'Les Champs Claude' 2021 Size:750ml During our visitPillot owns a sizable 1. 4 hectare parcel of Pinot Noir planted in 1970 in this Santenay lieu dit, and his gentle extraction (100% whole clusters, employing only pump overs) and no new oak lvage allow the friendly, juicy red fruit to take center stage over the rusticity typical of this appellation.
