Aligoté is Burgundy's forgotten grape—the appellation's 'other' white, often dismissed as simple. Thierry Pillot treats it with the same low-intervention respect as his Chardonnays: 100% Aligoté, wild fermented in those signature large barrels that preserve its natural acidity without flabby oak. The result is crystalline and mineral, bright without being shrill. You get the grape's signature herbaceous edge plus surprising complexity from a third of bottle age in barrel. This is Aligoté taken seriously—proof that the grape's bad reputation is lazy winemaking, not its fault.

More about Paul Pillot

Domaine Paul Pillot was founded in 1900 by Jean-Baptiste Pillot, a barrel maker who decided vines were his real calling. Paul took over in 1968, expanded into premier cru sites, and his son Thierry joined in 1999, taking over full-time in 2004. Now Thierry and sister Chrystelle are among the most exciting winemakers in Burgundy, running 13 hectares (4.5 red), farming organically, making restrained, minerally wines. They're the new stars of Saint-Aubin and Santenay.
