Description

Established as one of the young rising stars of Burgundy, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey in 2005 left his family Domaine, Marc Colin, where he gained a solid reputation for his outstanding white wines. Pierre-Yves took control of a share of the family vineyards (Domaine Marc Colin) from 2006 vintage. His first vintages have been made from vineyards and growers that he works closely with buying the wine as a must and aging the wines in barrels that he has supplied. If the resulting wines meet his standards the barrels of wine purchased are then matured in his own cold cellar below his house in Chassagne Montrachet.

As to the wines, they have a pronounced salinity which makes them exceptionally refreshing to drink. I honestly love this vintage for its energy and excellent terroir transparency.” For those wines already in bottles, Colin noted that they were put there in December 2020 while the rest will be bottled between April and July 2021. He is continuing to cap each bottle with wax as an aid in fighting potential premature oxidation issues. from Burghound – Allen Meadows

Review

Discreet wood influence sets off the layered aromas of various white-fleshed fruit that is nuanced by hints of citrus peel and quinine. The suave, round and agreeably textured medium-weight flavours possess a more refined mouthfeel if not the same power on the sappy, dry, and youthfully austere finale. This balanced effort should drink well young and with mid-term cellaring.

Note: the proportions have changed with this wine as it’s now 60% from Les Bondues and 20% each from Les Combes and Chenevottes proper
