      Crystalline precision and profound mineral depth define this exceptional Premier Cru Meursault from one of Burgundy’s most revered contemporary producers. The 2023 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Meursault 1er Cru Les Perrières is sourced from the famed Les Perrières vineyard, widely regarded as one of the greatest terroirs in Meursault for producing wines of extraordinary tension, longevity and refinement. Derived from the French word “pierre,” meaning stone, Perrières is distinguished by its rocky limestone soils, which impart a striking mineral character and unmistakable structural precision to the wine. Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey approaches the site with remarkable sensitivity, allowing the terroir to speak clearly through restrained élevage, careful lees work and minimal intervention.

      The 2023 vintage captures the hallmark energy and purity that define both the vineyard and the domaine’s philosophy. In the glass, the wine reveals tightly wound citrus and orchard fruit layered with crushed stone, subtle reduction and delicate oak nuances. The palate is intensely focused and linear, combining concentration with remarkable freshness and poise. Despite its depth and complexity, the wine remains vibrant and finely etched, driven by electric acidity and a powerful mineral backbone. Lees ageing contributes texture and quiet richness without overshadowing the vineyard’s natural transparency and saline tension. There is an effortless balance between power and elegance, making this one of the most intellectual and age-worthy expressions of Meursault in the vintage. While already compelling in youth, the wine possesses the structure and precision to evolve magnificently over the next fifteen years or more.

      Trusted by the professionals

      The 2023 Meursault Perrières 1er Cru has a vibrant bouquet with wet limestone, Granny Smiths and light oyster shell aromas that gain intensity in the glass. The palate is very well balanced with a keen line of acidity, taut and fresh, with a citrus-fresh finish that lingers in the mouth. This is excellent.

      — Neal Martin, Vinous, 96 points

      The 2023 Meursault Perrières 1er Cru is superb, offering up aromas of pear, citrus zest, white flowers, toasted nuts and freshly baked bread, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered palate that’s deep, pure and mineral, concluding with a long, saline finish.

      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.

      Tasting notes

      NOSE
      Intense and mineral-laced

      Aromas of preserved lemon, green pear and white peach intertwine with crushed limestone, wet stone, toasted hazelnut and delicate smoky reduction.

      PALATE
      Taut and exceptionally refined

      Focused citrus and orchard fruit are layered over vibrant acidity and pronounced chalky minerality, with subtle oak spice and a finely textured, saline-driven mid-palate.

      FINISH
      Long, precise and saline

      A persistent finish marked by citrus oil, crushed rock, almond and wet stone minerality, lingering with remarkable tension, purity and elegance.
