What is this wine?

Best known as one of Burgundy’s greatest white wine producers, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey (PYCM) also produces a small selection of red Burgundies that are every bit as exacting, pure, and terroir-driven as his whites. Based in Chassagne-Montrachet, Pierre-Yves sources fruit from trusted growers who farm responsibly, and he applies the same minimalist philosophy: organic practices, native yeast fermentations, whole clusters when appropriate, and minimal sulfur.
The Nuits-Saint-Georges 2023 comes from village-level parcels on the northern side of the appellation, where limestone-rich soils and cooler exposures yield wines of structure and lift. Fermentation is gentle and precise, followed by élevage in mostly used oak barrels to preserve freshness and detail.

Why get this wine?

This cuvée shows a refined, modern take on Nuits-Saint-Georges—structured and savory but with remarkable clarity and perfume. It offers a fascinating counterpoint to PYCM’s Chassagne whites, proving his mastery extends seamlessly to Pinot Noir. The 2023 vintage’s balance of ripeness and acidity makes it particularly approachable young yet capable of graceful aging.

What does this wine taste like?

Elegant and expressive, with red cherry, raspberry, rose petal, and subtle spice aromas. The palate is fine-boned and mineral, with lively acidity, delicate tannins, and a long, savory finish.

When should you drink this wine?

Drink 2026–2038. Decant for 45 minutes if opened young. Ideal with duck, game birds, or mushroom-based dishes.

Left Burgundy

Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey became a star for all kinds of reasons.

Partly, it was because he was an early master of a style of white Burgundy that has now become very popular: less oaky (thanks in part to larger barrels), no lees-stirring, earlier picked, a bit more reductive. The aim is not to make the fat wines that were still popular when he was starting out, but rather expressive wines that were chiseled and precise. His wines do all of this so well that he persuaded the rest of us to go along for the ride.

He also became a star because of critical acclaim, and it was the right kind of critical acclaim for the moment. Way back in 2008 Jancis Robinson wrote up PYCM and headlined it: “Making Chassagne more like Riesling”, capturing the style of these wines perfectly. Only Jancis could make a star of Klaus-Peter Keller by comparing his Rieslings to white Burgundy and a star of PYCM by comparing his white Burgundies to Riesling!

But we think he also became a star for a reason that some may overlook: he has long been a champion of Burgundy’s so-called lesser terroirs, and he has been able to make from them incredible wines that can reach a larger audience.
