Lamy-Pillot farms a small 0.14-hectare slice of Vergers on the northern edge of town as the slope turns to face east. The soil is thin and rocky, and the grapes gave a wine in 2022 with more tension and snap than the Clos St-Jean just to the south. The fruit aromas are more citrus and nectarine than the buttered apples in this latter climat. The texture is silky and fresh, carrying the wine to a pleasantly lingering finish.
The 2022 Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Vergers is one of the highlights of the range, unwinding in the glass with scents of pear, crisp green apple, white flowers and sweet citrus zest, followed by a medium to full-bodied, racy and chiseled palate that's satiny and seamless, concluding with a long, saline finish.
