Domaine Jean-Marc Pillot

Fourth-generation vigneron Jean-Marc Pillot is something of a rockstar in Chassagne. After studying at the Lycée Viticole in Beaune, Jean-Marc began... working with his father, Jean Pillot, in 1985 and he assumed control of the estate six years later. Jean-Marc has strived to leave his own personal imprint on his domaine’s wines while remaining true to the history of his father’s estate. Over the past few decades, Jean-Marc has taken his vines organic, built a new wine cave, tinkered with vinification and elevage, and moved to fermenting with only indigenous yeasts. He has also expanded the estate to about 30 acres of land, with grapes coming from an additional five or so acres coming from trusted négociants. While Jean-Marc Pillot’s holdings are mainly in Chassagne, the domaine also has vineyards Puligny, Santenay, Meursault, and Remigny, and though the estate primarily crafts white wines, it is well known for some spectacular reds. Recently, Jean-Marc’s son Antonin has begun assuming control of his father’s estate, ensuring the Pillot family’s legacy of pure, traditional, expressive white Burgundies.

About Domaine Faiveley

Founded in 1825 in Nuits-Saint-Georges, Domaine Faiveley stands as one of the largest, most important, and finest Burgundy houses. Faiveley has always... been family owned and operated, and since 2005, seventh-generation winemaker Erwan Faively has been at the head of the domaine, aided by winemaker Jérôme Flous since 2007 and Erwan’s sister, Eve, since 2014. At around 320 acres, Domaine Faiveley is big, sporting properties in multiple grand cru vineyards, many premier cru vineyards, and several monopoles. Erwan has helped the estate grow both in size and in quality, and Faively’s many cru bottlings come from small, meticulously tended parcels, making Faveley’s output both wide ranging and tantalizingly small in quantity. Faiveley is known for making rich, detailed wines with polished tannins, fresh acidity, and terrific transparency; for these reasons, there’s never enough Domaine Faiveley for its many, many fans.
