Thierry Pillot Meursault 'Les Perrières' Premier Cru 2020
Vintage Character
Meursault Premier Cru Les Perrières is one of the village’s most celebrated climats, and Thierry Pillot’s 2020 bottling captures why this stony slope is so prized. The 2020 vintage in Burgundy was warm and dry, bringing excellent ripeness and concentration, yet careful picking preserved the freshness that gives top white Burgundy its lift; it is widely regarded as a strong vintage for the Côte de Beaune. Perrières, whose name evokes stone, is famed for its rocky, limestone-rich soils, and that mineral backbone gives Meursault here a more tensile, chiselled profile than the broader, creamier side of the appellation.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
In the glass, this Chardonnay opens with lemon zest, white peach, crisp pear and white blossom, followed by hints of hazelnut, fresh butter and wet stone. The palate is layered but precise, combining Meursault’s natural breadth with lively acidity and a distinctly saline, flinty drive through the finish. Expect a texture that is silky rather than heavy, with fine concentration and persistent mineral length. It pairs beautifully with butter-poached lobster, roast chicken with morels, or seared scallops with cauliflower purée.
Winery Background
Thierry Pillot is a long-established Meursault family estate founded in 1914, now guided by Adèle and Elsa Matrot, who continue the work of Thierry and Pascale with a clear focus on purity and site expression. The domaine is known for organic viticulture, low yields and hand-harvesting, with a measured, non-interventionist philosophy in both vineyard and cellar. Fermentation and élevage are carried out in French oak with restrained use of new wood so the character of each parcel remains transparent. That balance of classical Meursault richness and disciplined precision makes Matrot a benchmark address for authentic Côte de Beaune whites.
