{"product_id":"2023-domaine-jean-marc-pillot-montagny-les-bassets","title":"2023 Domaine Jean-Marc Pillot Montagny \"Les Bassets\"","description":"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eWhile Jean-Marc Pillot is world-renowned for his legendary, high-ticket Chassagne-Montrachet Premier Crus, his 2023 Montagny \"Les Bassets\" is the ultimate insider secret—a flat-out mouthwatering white Burgundy that punches way above its price tag. Crafted with the exact same obsessive precision, hand-harvested care, and master-touch vinification as his flagship Chassagne allocations, this bottle swings for the fences and outshines Premier Cru bottles costing three times as much. Sourced from the stony, chalk-laden soils of the Côte Chalonnaise, it bypasses heavy new oak extraction to highlight pure, laser-focused Chardonnay tension, energetic fruit, and a mineral drive that makes it an absolute joy to drink today. Simply put, if you want world-class white Burgundy authority without breaking the bank, this is the bottle to load up on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"3\"\u003eIt pours a bright straw-gold with green highlights. The nose pops with crisp green apple, white peach, crushed limestone, lemon curd, and a whisper of white flowers. The palate is slick, lively, and vibrant, balancing its juicy orchard-fruit core with a racy, chalky acidity that coats the tongue and leaves a mouthwatering, long finish. Zero heavy butter, no oppressive oak—just pure, high-strung, incredibly delicious Chardonnay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"1\"\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"2,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eChassagne Pedigree, Montagny Value:\u003c\/b\u003e Crafted by one of Chassagne-Montrachet’s premier growers, giving you top-tier Burgundian precision without the high-ticket price tag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"2,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePremier Cru Chablis Precision:\u003c\/b\u003e Delivers the mouthwatering, chalk-driven tension, energetic drive, and mineral depth you expect when drinking a properly cellar-aged Premier Cru Chablis at its peak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"2,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePure Food-Pairing Versatility:\u003c\/b\u003e Low-impact oak keeps the fruit pure, bright, and incredibly refreshing, making it an effortless companion for everything from raw shellfish to roasted poultry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003eHow To Serve It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eIdeal Temperature:\u003c\/b\u003e Serve chilled at \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"36\"\u003e48°F–52°F (9°C–11°C)\u003c\/b\u003e in standard Burgundy or white wine stems to let the floral and stony aromatics open up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDecanting \/ Prep:\u003c\/b\u003e No decanting needed—pop, pour, and watch it evolve as it warms slightly in the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eFood Pairing:\u003c\/b\u003e Sensational alongside pan-seared sea scallops in brown butter, roasted chicken with tarragon, dungeness crab, or an aged Comté cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SommSelect","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48024728141878,"sku":"SOMM2611-PLT23MNTGBST-750","price":59.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/sommselect.com\/products\/2023-domaine-jean-marc-pillot-montagny-les-bassets","provider":"SommSelect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
