2010 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Chassagne-Montrachet ‘Les Chenevottes’ 1er Cru

$379.00

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.

Description

91-93 Points Allen Meadows
Here there is enough unabsorbed sulfur to render the nose difficult to assess but the fruit does seem quite fresh and definitely ripe. There is excellent richness and volume to the delicious and relatively large-scaled flavors that possess fine mid-palate concentration before ending in an explosive and driving finish. Outstanding.
