 Tasted by galenico on 6/12/2014 & rated 87 points: MASTER BORGOGNA AIS; 10/15/2013-6/28/2014 (HOTEL WESTIN PALACE MILANO): 15% legno nuovo.
Piretro e gesso, fiori bianchi di campo e borotalco. In fondo lla polverizzazione minerale scintilla un frutto acido, agrumi e gelato alla pesca. Speziatura naturale e fragranza quasi saponosa. Naso molto bello e finissimo.
La bocca ahimè non è all' altezza dei profumi nè di ciò che ci si aspettava, è molto indietro, acidissimo, quasi fastidioso, sembra addizionato di succo di limone che quasi fora le guance.
C' è poco frutto e sul finale non molto persistente la scodata salina chiama a gran voce un piatto di astice alla catalana. (3345 views)
 Tasted by Average Wine Guy (MH) on 2/18/2014 & rated 90 points: The 2011 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Puligny-Montrachet Le Trézin is medium (-) gold in colour with an attractive floral nose of apricots. There's noticeable sweetness towards the end with some underlying zesty lime and minerality.

On the palate, the wine displays an entry of fresh apricots and lime. This progresses to fleshy green apples. There's a good backbone of minerality with a saline finish. An extremely pleasant and quaffable wine. Firm and fresh acidity with broad fruit flavours. Acidity does a good job here in amplifying the fruit flavours. The palate broadens out upon entry then goes back to being focused and precise. Palate coating and expressive. A very commendable Villages wine. (2118 views)
 Tasted by eoinhharkins on 12/22/2013 & rated 92 points: Just delicious! Lots of lemon, apple, stone fruit, wet rock with some flinty undertones quite lively palate with lots of intensity and a long finish (1836 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
