  The 2013 vintage out of the Côte de Beaune continues to impress me. After all the worries of low yields and high acidity in the region, the wines are firing and this bottle from PYCM is yet another example of stellar white Burgundy out of the vintage. Boasting a characteristically PYCM reductive nose that had flint dominated aromatics alongside an enthralling tomato / olive oil characteristic, this wine opened up marvelously over two hours. The palate was true to a lot of the wines Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey produces, boasting a lot of minerality in the upfront, accompanied by a great citrus (largely grapefruit) note. The mid-palate brought that reductive flinty note from the nose into the palate, balanced out by a hint of peach and cream before an oak-led finish. Zippy and drier than I was expecting, this is clearly representative of PYCM's house-style of Chassagne-Montrachet and one that I can't wait to revisit again soon.

  Tons of reduction, really cool at first, lots of character, bright, crisp, tingly, long; but after a while the redux got a little bit tiring. Still this was stellar and will age another 8-10 yrs easily. EWG retrospective tasting dinner at Conrad's

  Popped and poured. Mildly corked, taint was hard to detect due to the PYCM signature flinty reduction that effectively masked the taint.
