Description

White Wine: 2013 | Domaine Marc Colin et Fils | Puligny-Montrachet Les Enseignieres

It shows a slight reduction on the nose, a light menthol note emerging with time. The palate is well balanced with a fine bead of acidity, notes of citrus peel and orange zest, and a touch of mint toward the finish, which fans out nicely.

Producer Information

Domaine Marc Colin et Fils is wine estate based in Saint-Aubin, in the Cte de Beaune subregion of a Burgundy. The domaine is particularly known for its local Chardonnay wines a hallmark of the region, although Pinot Noir is also grown spanning both Saint-Aubin and neighboring appellations. It was created by Marc Colin and his wife Michle in the 1970s from plots inherited from the Colin and Ponavoy families. At the start, their holdings totalled six hectares (15 acres) in Chassagne-Montrachet and Saint-Aubin. Today the estate, run by three of the Colin’s children, extends to 19 hectares (47 acres) over multiple appellations, including parcels in Puligny-Montrachet and Santenay. It had been larger but, in 2005, eldest son Pierre-Yves took his share of the vineyards to work separately, establishing the highly regarded Pierre-Yves Colin Morey domaine in Chassagne-Montrachet. Marc Colin’s annual production totals around 120,000 bottles per year. Some 70 percent of this is white wine, ranging from Bourgogne Aligot and Chardonnay through to Le Montrachet and Btard-Montrachet. The domaine also produces nine different white Saint-Aubin Premier Cru wines. Marc Colin also makes five red wines, headed by a Santenay Premier Cru La Comme.
