Tasting Note
Vinous 92-94 points, September 2018
Bright yellow-green. Precise yet subdued aromas of peach, yellow flowers, hazelnut and vanillin oak. Intensely flavored, minerally and fine-grained if a bit youthfully compact, even reduced, showing an almost medicinal quality in the early going. Finishes bright and long, with a repeating impression of minerality and superb energy. This has the palate feel of a Perrières. Colin told me that he "has the piece in the middle of Lafon's horseshoe [-shaped holding] of Charmes, which is at the top of the cru next to Perrières.
Winemaking
Winery
Pierre-Yves's winemaking journey began in 1994 when he joined his father's winery, Domaine Marc Colin, as a winemaker. During his time there, he established a successful negociant operation in 2001, together with his wife Caroline Morey, who hails from the esteemed winemaking family of Jean-Marc Morey. Building upon this foundation, Pierre Yves Colin Morey established his own eponymous domaine in 2006, nestled in the heart of Burgundy.
With a deep understanding of Burgundy's terroir and a passion for winemaking, Pierre Yves Colin Morey crafts wines that embody the essence of the region and showcase the unique character and complexity that Burgundy is renowned for.
