      A blend of multiple parcels totalling 1.64 ha, but all from this same village’s lieu-dit, with 3 generations of vines. This is the largest parcel of the domaine at over 1 hectare located at the end of the valley above the village of St Aubin.

      The white wines are whole bunch pressed, fermented with natural yeasts, aged on lees for up to 18 months in mostly in 350 litre barrels with no lees stirring and no filtration.

      Burghound describes 2021 as "the kind of vintage that they absolutely love. Otherwise, expressed, it’s a burg geek’s vintage par excellence. The best wines are superbly fresh and transparent as the underlying terroir is wonderfully clear; indeed it’s at the core of each wine.... Outstanding transparency though is not all there is as the wines are strikingly refreshing and tension filled."

      Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Saint Aubin Le Blanc 2021

      The 2021 Saint-Aubin Village comes from three parcels and sports a discrete reduction on the nose. This is nicely focused with plenty of energy. The palate is really convincing with an energetic opening, a seductive mixture of citric acidity intertwined with tropical notes of lime and apricot. Very focused and brimming with life, this will be irresistible in its youth.

      — Neal Martin, Vinous

      The village-level Saint-Aubin from Domaine Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey features green apple and grapefruit aromas with spice from the cask fermentation. The texture is silky and round, avoiding any tart or acerbic sensations and lingering on the palate. The grapes are a blend of three parcels from his fifty-year-old vines in the south-facing but high-altitude lieu-dit Le Blanc with a parcel in En Choilles. Colin presses the grapes very gently as whole clusters and racks to barrel without settling before fermenting in cask on native yeasts.

      — Decanter

      This sample has 50% new oak as those barrels have gone through malolactic first, but the final blend will have less. There are some apple notes which will tone down and a limey finish. Pretty good. Drink from 2024-2027.

      — Jasper Morris M.W., Inside Burgundy, October 2022

      The 2021 Saint-Aubin Village is excellent, exhibiting aromas of pear, green apple, mint, white flowers and hazelnuts. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with chalky structuring extract and tangy acids, it concludes with a long, precise finish.

      — Wine Advocate

      From Le Banc, Le Bas de Monin and En Choilles. Like the Bourgogne, this is also super-fresh with its aromas of just sliced citrus, green apple and wet stone hints. The sleek, energetic and precise middleweight flavors exude ample minerality on the clean, refreshing, very dry and lightly austere finale.

      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.
