2020 | Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey | Chassagne-Montrachet Les Ancegnieres

Plenty of lime in the lemon. The bouquet is a little more perfumed, and the fruit swirls all round the palate, different forms of apple, a little pear, some juiciness while staying with the PYCM purity. Particularly persistent.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: A terrific effort, the 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Ancegnières unwinds in the glass with aromas of pear, freshly baked bread, orange oil and toasted nuts. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, it's vibrant and concentrated, with lively acids and a long, elegantly chalky finish.

• Burghound: Moderate wood is present on the overtly floral-suffused nose of pear essence, apple and a whiff of lemon peel. The succulent, round and highly seductive medium weight flavors are blessed with an abundance of dry extract before terminating in a clean, dry and lengthy finale. This isn't as racy as a number of the foregoing wine but it's not only quite stylish, it's also impressively complex.

Producer Information

Maison Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey is a Burgundy producer based in Chassagne-Montrachet, in the Côte de Beaune subregion. It is known for its fine Chardonnay wines, and has most of its vineyard holdings in Saint-Aubin. The estate was established in 2005 by husband-and-wife team Pierre-Yves Colin and Catherine Morey, both children of esteemed Burgundy winemakers. Colin had been winemaker at his family's winery since 1995 and in 2001 started a négociant business with his wife. In 2005, he left the family estate to establish his own label with his six-hectare (15-acre) share – the rest of the Colin vineyards remained with his three siblings (Caroline, Joseph and Damien, who run Domaine Marc Colin). Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey has holdings in several premier cru sites in Saint-Aubin and Chassagne-Montrachet including Chatèniere, Champlots, Remilly, Chenevottes and Caillerets. On top of this, the domaine buys grapes to make wines from several grand cru vineyards, including Bâtard-Montrachet and Corton-Charlemagne. The estate predominantly makes Chardonnay, but also produces a small amount of Pinot Noir from Saint-Aubin and Santenay. In the cellar, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey does not employ battonage but favors lengthy lees contact and barrel aging. The wines are bottled without filtration and often without fining.
