Tasting Notes

  • GDH

    Goedhuis, December 2019

    Located up on the hill towards St Aubin, Les Chaumées has a relatively reserved nature, with light white peach flavours and a subtle honeysuckle scent. Open, gentle and pure, this is a rewarding and contemplative style of wine that is immensely pleasurable.

  • BURG

    Burghound, June 2020,
    Score: 89-91

    Notes of smoky reduction presently dominate the underlying fruit though it again seems ripe. More interesting are the medium-bodied flavors that possess both good energy and freshness while offering a step up in volume on the attractively textured finish that is delivers sneaky good length. This could use a bit more overall depth, but it should develop it if allowed at least a few years of bottle age. Drink 2024+

Producer

Domaine Bruno Colin

Bruno’s estate is spread across an impressive 30+ different parcels in Chassagne Montrachet, Puligny Montrachet and St Aubin. From 2016 onwards, his portfolio includes Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru Les Desmoiselles and Chevalier Montrachet Grand Cru, passed down to him by his father, Michel, who has stepped into retirement (Michel Colin-Deleger’s estate was divided between his two sons, Bruno and Philippe). Bruno’s style blends Burgundy's tell-tale minerality with luxuriant fruit. The wines tend to display generous concentration with vibrant drive. Many have the potential to age beautifully but Bruno’s wines are also notable for their open approachability in youth. His wide range of Chassagne Montrachet premiers crus captures the diverse expression of the appellation.

Region

Chassagne Montrachet

The white wines of Chassagne Montrachet can be difficult to distinguish from Puligny. At their most typical they are slightly fleshier and more hedonistic, but are often just as mineral and refined making the two almost inseparable. When distinguishable, they offer notes of honeysuckle, lime blossom and honey. Many have become quite approachable when young. It is larger than Puligny with vineyards totalling over 330 hectares. Though it shares both the grand cru vineyards of Le Montrachet and Bâtard Montrachet, it has sole ownership of the miniscule Criots Bâtard Montrachet. Similar to Puligny, Chassagne also grows Pinot Noir, which can be austere when young. A small amount of red Chassagne is also made.
