What is this wine?

Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey (PYCM) is one of Burgundy’s most admired producers, based in Chassagne-Montrachet and renowned for crafting white wines of purity, tension, and longevity. Since founding his domaine in 2005 after years at his family’s Domaine Marc Colin, Pierre-Yves has championed a meticulous, low-intervention style—hand-harvesting, whole-cluster pressing, native fermentations, and no bâtonnage—to produce wines that express their terroir with crystalline precision.
The Bourgogne Chardonnay 2023 is sourced primarily from vineyards around Saint-Aubin, Puligny-Montrachet, and Chassagne-Montrachet, grown on classic limestone-clay soils. Fermented and aged in 350L barrels (mostly neutral oak), it sees no stirring of the lees, resulting in a taut, mineral-driven style that mirrors the precision of PYCM’s village wines.

Why get this wine?

This is one of the greatest Bourgogne Blancs in Burgundy, often performing at a level well above its appellation. It delivers the hallmark PYCM character—flinty minerality, tension, and focus—at a fraction of the cost of his Premier Crus. The 2023 vintage brings a touch of richness to the domaine’s trademark energy, making this both accessible and ageworthy.

What does this wine taste like?

Pure and racy, with lemon oil, green apple, crushed stone, and a hint of hazelnut. The palate is precise and saline, combining bright citrus fruit with chalky minerality and long, elegant finish.

When should you drink this wine?

Drink 2025–2032. Serve cool (not cold) to showcase its depth. Perfect with shellfish, roast chicken, or creamy vegetable dishes.

Left Cote de Nuits

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.
