 Tasted by Jeremy Holmes on 12/8/2023: A pure and detailed nose of white peach, green melon, spearmint and flint. Great shape in the mouth, with a fruit sweet heart and excellent mineral detail. It is rich and sappy, beautifully balanced and finishes with cut and persistence. (467 views)
 Tasted by fcxj on 4/12/2023 & rated 92 points: Reduction well executed, good energy. (738 views)
 Tasted by WineBurrowingWombat on 6/12/2020 & rated 93 points: Nose: [59°] Some fresh toast, halved green apples, ripe yellow pear with its unwashed skins, some grass/dry hay, a very subtle creamy vanilla note and finely crushed rocks.

Palate: [60°] Dark yellow fruit with clean and subtle minerals, a really nice and soft prickly spice that works really well, a loaf of bread that's been toasted, a bit of dry hay, branches and tree bark.

Attributes: Medium straw color. Dry with little amounts of supple tannin. Medium to medium-plus body with medium to medium-plus acidity. Good finish of about 16-18+ seconds.

Thoughts: Very enjoyable, good weight to this. There's this juiciness that keeps you wanting to drink more (kinda dangerous in my opinion). The fruit here is balanced well by the bitterness and juiciness. There's also some energy here that kinda teases me, making me wish there was just a bit more energy to this. It feels like it's a little torn between trying to be dense and refreshing.

Other notes: Burgundy glass. Slow-ox'ed in bottle for the duration of consumption of 2 hours. (2398 views)
 Tasted by Jeremy Holmes on 2/5/2020: Very spicy, punchy nose. Cool and flecked with minerals. Some floral spice. Powerful and long with an unctuous feel. (1710 views)
 Tasted by Harley1199 on 10/10/2019: Served by the glass. In my old days this was 'Bois de Chassagne', but regardless of the name on the label, at the moment this bottle is very similar to the freshly tasted Caillerets, that is, fresh, with limestone ore, citrus and peaches on the nose. In the mouth it is vibrant and meaty, with a great sensation of fruit pulp well balanced by a citric acidity and leaving a spicy final aftertaste. In ten years a jewel of a terroir not especially known.

Servido por copas. En mis viejos tiempos esto era Bois de Chassagne, pero independientemente del nombre en la etiqueta, en estos momentos está botella es muy similar al Caillerets recién catado, es decir, fresco, con mineral de caliza, cítricos y melocotones en nariz. En boca se muestra vibrante y carnoso, con una gran sensación de pulpa de fruta bien balanceada por una acidez cítrica y dejando un regusto final especiado. En diez años una joya de un terruño no especialmente conocido. (1732 views)
 Tasted by Jeremy Holmes on 9/6/2018: Fresh aromas of green melon and white peach. There’s a fruit-sweet heart in the mouth and the finish is laden with chalk. (1894 views)

Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey

Producer Website

After leaving his family domaine in 2005, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey has established himself as one of the rising stars of Burgundy. Pierre-Yves has built a strong reputation for crafting exquisite white Burgundy that display energy and vitality. The white wines are whole bunch pressed, fermented with natural yeasts, aged on lees for up to 18 months in mostly in 350 litre barrels with no lees stirring and no filtration. More recently Pierre-Yves has sourced Pinot Noir from some exceptional vineyards further north in the Cote d'Or, and these are also exciting wines true to their appellation. The corks used come from one tiny supplier and are extra long and extra wide (55mm x 25mm) for the village, 1er cru and Grand cru wines and are untreated with no paraffin and the bottles are then sealed with soft wax to ensure no problems with premature oxidation. The resulting wines are built to age classically up to 10 years or more.

Burgundy

Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)

Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson

# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates

# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson

# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson

# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
