ABOUT THIS WINE:

This premier cru Chardonnay from Saint-Aubin is a tribute to Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey's grandmother, Marguerite, and embodies the depth and precision that define his winemaking. Sourced from one of Burgundy's rising appellations, the 2021 vintage was aged in large oak barrels with minimal intervention, allowing the purity of fruit and terroir to shine. This wine strikes a delicate balance between freshness and richness, with a touch of oak adding complexity without overwhelming the fruit.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCER:

Pierre-Yves Colin is the eldest son of the famed Marc Colin. After working as the winemaker at his father’s domaine from 1994 to 2005, he established his own domaine from family vineyards he inherited from his family. Since that time, he has rapidly become a star in the Cote de Beaune and is now considered one of Burgundy’s top producers. His choice to use larger demi-muid barrels and eschew the use of battonnage, makes each one of his bottlings a clear expression of its terroir and a study in mineral-driven Chardonnay. As scary as it may seem, with each new vintage his wines seem to get better and better. This is not only one of the top domaines in Chassagne, this is one of the great winemakers and domaines in the world.
