DOMAINE PILLOT, Romain and Simon
serving great burgundy wines
Always present on the Côte Chalonnaise,
the Pillot family began working
the vine around 150 years ago.
HISTORY OF THE ESTATE
6 generations of winegrowers, history, know-how and emotions echo in our hearts.
When Romain and Simon’s grandfather, Raymond, took over from his father Henri, there were 4 hectares of vines, no trellising and fruit trees filling the vines. Mixed farming provided additional income to feed the horse. Raymond sold the first bottles in the 1960s and bought his first high-clearance tractor in 1966. His two sons then joined him and continued to expand the cultivated area, which now totals 17 hectares. In 1994, the cellar, which dates back to 1764, was completely renovated and converted into a tasting room and bottle storage area.
Romain & Simon Pillot
Children of the Burgundy vineyards, the two of us officially took over the estate in 2024.
Particularly attached to the practices of yesteryear, we surround ourselves with the best equipment and the best partners. We study all horizons to learn from each other’s practices. We adapt to today’s challenges.
