 Producer Profile...
Thierry Pillot is an open, friendly young man who, like many of his generation, has worked overseas in Australia and South Africa. He has been at the estate since 1999. His sister Chrystelle has joined him (and their father Paul) more recently, having been a stagiaire in Australia and Oregon. These two are from the 4th generation and their domaine is not to be confused with the other two Pillot domaines in Chassagne. The estate extends to 13 ha, and they are cousins of the Germains of Meursault, long-time suppliers of Tanners.
