Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey, a distinguished winemaker in Chassagne-Montrachet, is renowned for crafting exceptional wines that express the unique characteristics of their terroirs.
As one of the most revered producers in Burgundy today, Pierre-Yves is known for his precision, restraint, and minimal interventionist approach. After working alongside his father at Domaine Marc Colin, Pierre-Yves launched his own domaine in 2001, quickly establishing a cult following. His wines are defined by purity, tension, and an almost electric transparency of site expression, often eschewing bâtonnage and relying on long élévage in larger demi-muids to maintain freshness and focus.
-
WINEMAKER: Pierre-Yves Colin
-
FARMING: Organic (uncertified)
-
VARIETY: 100% Chardonnay
-
TERROIR: From multiple lieux-dits across the village of Meursault, grown on classic marl and limestone soils. The village's position at the base of the Côte d'Or's slope offers excellent drainage and a sunny, yet cool microclimate ideal for Chardonnay.
-
VINIFICATION: Indigenous yeast fermentation in oak barrels with no bâtonnage; minimal sulfur used; fermented in a cool cellar to preserve precision and nuance.
-
AGING: Aged for approximately 18 months in 350L and 500L lightly toasted French oak barrels (with minimal new oak), then bottled unfiltered.
-
TASTING NOTES: A strikingly pure and mineral-driven Meursault with layers of citrus oil, white peach, hazelnut, and subtle flint. The palate is tense and linear, offering a core of crystalline fruit, racy acidity, and a long, saline finish.
-
FOOD PAIRINGS: Ideal with seared scallops, roasted chicken with morels, lobster risotto, or creamy Comté.
