A blend of multiple parcels, but all from this same village’s lieu-dit, with 3 generations of vines. In totality, this is the largest parcel of the domaine at over 1 hectare located at the end of the valley above the village of St Aubin.
’A shimmer of reduction – agrume style. More forward, mouth-puckering acidity is the first impression but the wine relaxes some over the palate – yellow citrus and a touch of oak today – the finish fading attractively…’
Bill Nanson, Burgundy Report
Pierre-Yves Colin was born into the wine industry. His father, Marc Colin, who is a famed Burgundy producer himself, started Pierre’s winemaker career in 1994, when he asked him to work at the family’s domain. In 2005, he switched things up by creating his own wines from inherited vineyards. Since then, he has rapidly become of the top Burgundy producers using larger demi-muid barrels and eschewing the use of battonnage, makes each one of his bottlings a clear expression of its terroir and a study in mineral-driven Chardonnay. His wines get better and better with each vintage and so it's easy to say that he is not only one of the top domaines in Chassagne, this is one of the great winemakers and domaines in the world.
