2019 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Meursault

$399.00

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

93 Points Allen Meadows
A marvellous blend of fruit from Narvaux, Grands Charrons and Vireuils, gently pressed and fermented whole cluster, with hardly any settling. This is classic Meursault, with notes of ripe apple, butter and hazelnut on the nose. The palate is rich, but there is still enough structure and freshness to sustain a lovely, lingering finish.

90-92 Robert Parker Wine Advocate
In this low-yielding vintage, Pierre-Yves Colin opted to produce a 2019 Meursault Village, blending fruit from Narvaux (which he often bottles as a lieu-dit cuvée) with grapes from Grands Charrons and Vireuils. This is a fine hillside cuvée, mingling aromas of crisp orchard fruit, praline and lemon oil with hints of dried white flowers. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, it’s bright and chalky, concluding with a long finish.
