Description

Saint-Aubin has become one of the great insider appellations of Burgundy, and no producer has done more to raise its reputation than Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey. The village sits tucked between Chassagne and Puligny, with vineyards that benefit from cooler exposures and limestone-heavy soils. In warmer years like 2023, this translates into wines that are full of energy, with a balance of ripeness and precision that is hard to beat.

PYCM treats this cuvée with the same rigor as his top premiers crus – low yields, careful pressing, wild yeast ferments, and élevage in quality oak that respects the fruit rather than dressing it up. The result in 2023 is a Chardonnay that captures the brightness of the vintage but with plenty of drive and structure. It’s layered, textural, and transparent to its terroir, a clear marker of why Saint-Aubin is no longer just a “value” pick but a destination in its own right.

As always, quantities are painfully small, and the reputation of this bottling means it disappears fast. It’s one of those rare wines that delivers both serious craftsmanship and immediate drinkability.

Inside Burgundy 90 Points

There was some hail here, so lower yields. More lime than lemon in colour, with a fresh apple fruit to the nose, perhaps some greengage behind, stylish and with good length. Fine tension, still some edges to smooth out, but this should be good. Drink from 2027-2030. Tasted Oct 2024. (88-90)

Importer's Notes:

A blend of multiple parcels totalling 1.64 ha, but all from this same village’s lieu-dit, with 3 generations of vines. In totality, 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.

Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey

Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey, often known simply as PYCM, is the husband and wife team of Pierre-Yves Colin and Caroline Morey - a meeting of families steeped in Burgundian tradition.

Pierre-Yves is the eldest son of the Marc Colin, where he worked until 2005 - he established his own negociant business and domaine from family vineyards he inherited. His star has been rising ever since, making electric wines from parcels across Saint Aubin, Puligny, Meursault, Corton and his home commune of Chassagne.

The wines are pure and driven, with no batonnage (lees-stirring), only natural yeasts, and no fining or filtering. The corks are extra-long and bottles wax-sealed to avoid any possibility of premature oxidation. He builds white wines for the long haul.
