As noted above, Pitangerets has slightly poorer and stonier soils than Charmois and tends to produce firmer, more savoury wines (although in 2022, this difference is less pronounced). Pillot farms half a hectare of vines that are reaching their 60th harvest. Some growers prefer to label this wine under the easier-to-pronounce climat, Les Combes. Again, this is a powerful, dense, layered wine that starts rich but tightens up as it travels across the palate, with a lovely, sappy freshness and drive to match its generosity.
