The Collottes have been grape growers in Marsannay for four generations, but it wasn’t until 1981 that a young, 16 year-old Philippe Collotte bottled the first wine under the name of Domaine Collotte. He subsequently purchased some mature vineyards of about 40 years of age in both Gevrey-Chambertin and Chambolle-Musigny, to further expand the domaine’s repertoire.
From two parcels of old vines; one based on Crinoidal limestone (known in France as Calcaire à Entroques), the other Comblanchien. This wine is very perfumed and pure with real depth, yet showing a lovely minerality and elegance, finishing with great length and very fine tannins.
A nose that’s finer and more floral-inflected after the others – ‘But the work in the vines is the same,‘ underlines Isabelle. A higher-toned and more forward aroma of red fruit with an airy perfume. Wide, more red-fruited and more structural too – take your time with this but there’s fine material here. - Bill Nanson, Burgundy Report
