Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Hommage à Marguerite 2023 is a beautifully composed and mineral-driven Chardonnay that showcases the precision and finesse for which Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey has become internationally renowned. First created in 2016, this cuvée is a tribute to Pierre-Yves’ grandmother, Marguerite, and blends fruit from several Premier Cru vineyards in Saint-Aubin, including Combe, Perrières and Créot. The combination of these sites brings together differing expositions and soil profiles, producing a wine of layered complexity, freshness and tension. Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey’s restrained and meticulous cellar practices preserve the purity of fruit and terroir transparency, favouring elegance and structure over overt richness or oak influence. The 2023 vintage delivered ripe fruit balanced by vibrant natural acidity, allowing this wine to show both generosity and energy.
In the glass, the wine reveals a refined and saline profile built around orchard fruit, citrus and crushed stone minerality. The palate is vibrant and finely textured, with subtle reduction and carefully integrated oak supporting the wine’s tension and depth. Notes of white peach, ripe lemon and green apple unfold alongside hints of sea spray, toasted almond and chalk dust. There is both flesh and precision here, with bright acidity carrying the wine through a long and mineral-laced finish. The wine remains poised and harmonious throughout, balancing concentration with freshness and clarity. Sophisticated and age-worthy, this Premier Cru Saint-Aubin pairs beautifully with lobster, scallops, roast poultry or refined cream-based seafood dishes.

The 2023 Saint-Aubin Hommage à Marguerite 1er Cru, a blend of Combe, Perrières and Craillot, is delightful, fresh and saline with subtle notes of sea spray and white peaches. The palate is well balanced with a tangy opening, and lively peach nuances develop toward the finish. This is harmonious and quite irresistible already. Recommended. Drink: 2026-2036.
The usual blend of Combe, Créot, Perrières. Pale lemon colour. A refined bouquet, orchard fruit with a light ripe lemon wash at the back, a very stony feel across the palate, yet with enough flesh to satisfy. A long fine finish with some concentration. Drink from 2027-2031. Tasted Oct 2024.
The 2023 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Hommage à Marguerite is fleshy and charming, bursting with aromas of pear, buttered toast and sweet citrus fruit, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy palate with a satiny attack and a saline finish. This will offer a broad drinking window.
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.
Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey’s philosophy is simple yet profound: to create wines that speak to the unique character of their terroir. By embracing organic and biodynamic farming practices, he ensures that his vines are in harmony with nature, allowing each vineyard’s potential to shine through in the wines. In the winery, Pierre-Yves follows a minimal intervention approach, letting the natural yeast drive fermentation and allowing the wines to mature on their lees to develop depth and complexity. His wines are celebrated for their purity, elegance, and their ability to age gracefully, reflecting the precision of his craftsmanship and the distinctive beauty of Burgundy’s finest vineyards.
