Steely finish, lemony and lots of mineral — 6 years ago
This is a YOUNG WINE. I decanted for 2-3 hours and it really benefitted. I’ve had it at 8 years and it really shines. Very enjoyable now with some air but clearly more to say in the future. — 7 years ago

Wonderful expression of Burgundian chardonnay. Crisp yet full bodied. Aromas of lemon curd and butterscotch. — 10 years ago

Razor sharp clarity and focus, I could happily spend my days drinking Pillot on an abounded forlorn island, yet feel nothing but pleasure and enthusiasm. Bday dinner! — 3 years ago

Very enjoyable. A little reductive but could be the desired style and I like it. — 6 years ago
Fresh, young, and structured. Needs time to open up. Tres elegant. #paulpillot #pulignymontrachet #premiercru #chardonnay #cotedebeaune #burgundy #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago

Trying wrap my head around this 09, a bit disjointed and messy, especially on the palate. But lovely aromas of apple brittle, pear, butterscotch cream and minerals. The charred smokiness in the mouth is somewhat unappealing, but fades as the wine warms to room temperature. — 12 years ago
"Slow Decanted" this white burgundy with the Vinloq System
DAY 1
👃Lemon/underripe pineapple with stony minerals/black pepper. Vivid
👅Glorious minerality from start to finish.
Lemony fruit takes a back seat to the minerality but there is plenty to provide balance. Great structure, very nice acidity, and a slightly oily texture. All bright and crisp
The remaining burgundy was Slow Decanted in my refrigerator
DAY 10
👃Minerals lead on the vivid nose with lemons in the background. Less flinty minerality than day 1
👅Lemon fruit followed by minerality coming on at the black pepper finish. Structure, acidity, and oily texture continue. Concentrated. Classy and well put together
The 2014 Morgeot Les Fairendes is going strong and was powerful and refined on DAYS 1 and 10.
No reason this cannot continue to improve based on the great overall balance

Elegant nose of beeswax, acacia flowers, pear, almond, mineral notes, lemon rind. Lacks concentration in the mid palate. Persistent thru the finish with the lifted style. — 5 years ago
Discrete nose of white fruit with pears and also a slight minty and smoke feel, very discrete. The palate is gorgeous, such balance between the perfect acidity and slight richness of fruit and elegance. Another great 2017 CDB. 90-91
Nez discret de poires et une touche de menthe et de fumée mais sans déranger. Le vin est délicieux, quel équilibre entre cette tension appuyée et cette richesse de fruit, juste parfait. Un autre beau blanc 2017. 90-91 + — 6 years ago

Quite fresh and delicious. A good value. — 11 years ago
Just delicious. Just starting to veer over into aged character. At first opening, very little fruit but blossomed into golden apple. Lush. Tightrope balance in a pretty dress. Great with whole fish. — 11 years ago
Was a little worried that this 2002 vintage was not opened sooner, but... Whoa doggie! Exceptional!!! Pear skin, apple pie, buttered toast and new French oaky deliciousness!!!! — 12 years ago
