Enjoy it now, or cellar for 15 years or more. No need to decant before serving.

Clos Pitois begins with a shimmering bouquet of white flowers, citrus, and ripe stone fruits, underscored by hints of hazelnut and subtle oak. This Premier Cru from Burgundy is made entirely from Chardonnay grapes and is a testament to its vineyard’s quality. The wine benefits from the special microclimate and limestone-rich soils of Clos Pitois, which is exclusively owned by Domaine Roger Belland.

This family winery spans the finest appellations in Burgundy, where it has been crafting exquisite wines for over five generations. Current owners Roger and Julie, a father and daughter combination, mix traditional viticulture with modern techniques, ensuring each bottle reflects the purity and complexity of the land.

On the palate, the Clos Pitois Blanc offers a harmonious blend of apricot, lemon zest, and toasted almonds, supported by a creamy texture and vibrant acidity. The finish is long and mineral-driven, showcasing notes of flint and wet stone. It spent 8 months maturing in French oak barrels before release, imparting an oaky backbone. This wine pairs beautifully with scallops, creamy chicken dishes, or grilled fish. It’s a versatile and elegant expression of this highly exclusive vineyard.
