Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey, a highly respected name in Burgundy, is known for his focus on low-intervention, terroir-driven wines that capture the essence of their origin. Although more famed for his whites, his reds display a meticulous approach that ensures purity and precision.
- WINEMAKER: Pierre-Yves Colin
- FARMING: Practicing organic with a strong emphasis on sustainability, not certified
- VARIETY: 100% Pinot Noir
- TERROIR: The vineyards in Nuits-St-Georges are known for their complex soils of limestone mixed with clay, providing structure and intensity to the wines. The climate here allows for balanced ripening, contributing to depth and finesse.
- VINIFICATION: Grapes are hand-picked and sorted meticulously. Fermentation is carried out using native yeasts, with partial whole-cluster inclusion to add structure and aromatic complexity.
- AGING: Aged for 12-14 months in French oak barrels, with a low percentage of new oak to maintain the wine's expression of fruit and terroir.
- TASTING NOTES: Elegant and vibrant, offering layers of red cherry, raspberry, and pomegranate, with underlying notes of earthy spice, subtle herbs, and floral nuances. The palate is structured yet supple, with fine-grained tannins and a mineral-laden finish.
- FOOD PAIRINGS: Pairs beautifully with duck breast, roasted game birds, or a mushroom tart.
- SCORES / ACCOLADES:
- Vinous: 93/100 for its vibrant energy and purity.
- Wine Advocate: 92/100 for its balance and depth.
