      From vines located in Meursault (40%), Puligny (15%), Chassagne (15%) and also Saint Aubin (30%). Fresh clear colour, the nose is a little reticent at first. A hint of struck match heightens notes of fresh lemon, grapefruit. Lean and racy on the palate, yellow fruits and just ripe nectarines. Lovely tension, pure and persistent.

      This release according to Burghound "2022 is the best white Burgundy vintage since 2017 and rivals, if not surpasses, 2014 in quality. Genuinely great wines were made up and down the classification hierarchy and in every commune. Moreover, unlike 2021, quantities are good though not actually generous so there is a reasonable chance that you will be able to find them, a big plus because you will want to find them."

      All the wines are made in 350 litre barrels, with crushed and cooled grapes, no settling of the solids after pressing, no lees stirring either, an early and rapid fermentation, then malolactics followed, finished by Christmas. The crushing and long pressing give a more concentrated dry extract. They were worried at the harvest by the relatively high pH levels, but the certainly don’t taste that way. The first two whites and the reds were racked before the harvest, the rest still in barrel. Note that in 2022 almost all the wines are from their own domaine, excepting Corton Charlemagne, Chassagne-Montrachet Baudines and part of the Meursault blend.

      Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Bourgogne Blanc 2022

      Below Chassagne and below Puligny. Fresh clear colour, not reductive but nor is there much nose showing either. Lean and racy, grapefruit and fresh lemon at the finish, quite persistent, and now a little of the reductive aromatics can be seen. Pure and persistent. Drink from 2025-2027.

      — Jasper Morris M.W., Inside Burgundy

      The 2022 Bourgogne Blanc comes from two parcels in Puligny and Chassagne-Montrachet. It has an attractive, leesy bouquet, as you might expect, well-defined with a little more intensity than the previous vintage. The palate is well-defined, with a touch of bitter lemon lending tension. This has a pleasant sharpness and spiciness, probably destined to give 3-4 years of drinking pleasure.

      — Neal Martin, Vinous

      Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey

      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 must and aging the wines in barrels which 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.

      “This is not just one of the top domaines in the Cote de Beaune in Burgundy, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey is now well recognised as one of the greatest winemakers and domaines in the world. Consistently producing benchmark wines in each vintage.”

      The Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey estate was born in 2001 from the association of Pierre-Yves Colin (son of Marc) and Caroline Morey (daughter of Jean-Marc). Today they operate 13 hectares in the villages of Saint-Aubin, Chassagne-Montrachet, Santenay, Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault. Their production consists of 92% Chardonnay, 5% Pinot Noir and 3% of Aligoté grape variety. Working about 2 hectares from the family heritage, the other plots have come from different acquisitions over the last fifteen years, as well as a few plots in Fermages.
