Paul Pillot

Paul Pillot is a Burgundy producer based in Saint-Aubin, a commune in the Côte de Beaune known for producing both red and white wines. Saint-Aubin sits in the hills behind Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet, benefiting from similar limestone-rich soils and favorable exposition while remaining more accessible than its famous neighbors.

Saint-Aubin gained appellation status in 1970 and is particularly recognized for its Chardonnay-based white wines, which often display mineral precision and elegant fruit character. The commune includes several Premier Cru vineyards, with Les Charmois being one of the notable sites positioned on slopes that provide good drainage and sun exposure. These Premier Cru designations reflect vineyards with superior terroir that consistently produce wines of greater complexity and aging potential.

Paul Pillot's current range focuses on Chardonnay from the Premier Cru vineyard Les Charmois, representing the white wine tradition that has made Saint-Aubin increasingly respected among Burgundy enthusiasts seeking quality expressions of Côte de Beaune terroir.
