Description

The 2020 Bourgogne Chardonnay offers up aromas of honeyed orchard fruit, white flowers, citrus zest and freshly baked bread. Medium to full-bodied, ample and seamless, it’s a bright, charming wine that will drink well on release.

About Domaine Marc-Collin

“Marc Colin is one of the best growers in the Côte de Beaune, perhaps to Saint Aubin what Jean-Marc Roulot is to Meursault. And you can quote me on that.” Neal Martin

The Domaine was created in 1970 by Marc Colin and his wife Michèle. They began with some 6 hectares of vineyards that had been in the family for over a century and added some more along the journey. Today, Caroline and Damien, two of their children, lead this 12-hectare estate and includes 26 appellations in the villages of SAINT-AUBIN, CHASSAGNE-MONTRACHET, PULIGNY-MONTRACHET and SANTENAY.‎‎ Pierre-Yves (who made the wine at Marc Colin for 10 years) established his own project in 2005.

In the Vineyard

Vineyards are farmed lutte raisonnée with some experimentation en culture biologique. Their wines distinctly represent their place with purity, harmony and complexity.

In the Winery

The one big thing to note is an élévage of 15-18 months. Seeing the wine through two winters in barrel works wonders harmonising Burgundian Chardonnay particularly when the acid profile & freshness of fruit is there to support the time.

The 2020 Vintage at Domaine Marc-Collin

Damien Colin began picking on August 22 in 2020. Now that the domaine is smaller, following his two brothers’ secessions, he is able to be ultra precise about harvest date, sampling parcel by parcel, he tells me, and small volumes of wine mean longer élevage is feasible too. Percentages of new oak are down a touch in 2020, with no new wood at all for the grands crus, but foudres and larger barrels are also out of the picture, Damien finding most coopers’ 228-liter barrels more consistent, and in any case, better adapted to vinifying smaller quantities. Pure, precise and flavorful, the 2020s are a terrific success at this address.

Ripe and fresh aromas are comprised by notes of pear and apple compote trimmed in hints of lemon confit. The delicious, round and supple middle weight flavors are shaped by citrus-tinged acidity on the balanced finish. To enjoy young.. Drink: 2023+

Wagner-Stempel Riesling Heerkretz 2017

Riesling | Rheinhessen, Germany

White peach, apple and lime are accented by their pits and pits as well as by raw almond on an enticing nose highly reminiscent of that exhibited by the corresponding 2016. Scents of Ceylon tea and spring beauty (Claytonia) add inner-mouth allure. The feel is flatteringly silken, notwithstanding the persistence of stimulating piquancy. Infectious juiciness, along with an invigoratingly tactile, active sense of crystalline stony impingement, dramatically sets this wine’s vibrant, bell-clear fin

DRY
The 2017 Pündericher Marienburg Riesling Raffes is the essence of gray slate. Bright in color and flavors but also intense and intermixed with lemon-fresh stony notes, this is a concentrated yet pure, fresh and finessed, highly intense and refined Riesling with great length and an endless finish. This is a powerful but Auslese-styled Riesling with concentration, finesse and lots of power but no alcoholic impression. The wine was bottled with 13% alcohol and almost nine grams of residual sugar.

Fritz Haag Riesling Braunberger-Juffer Kabinett 2019

Riesling | Mosel-Saar-Ruwer, Germany

 The 2019er Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Kabinett was made from fruit picked at moderate Oechsle degrees, and was fermented down to fruity-styled levels of residual sugar. It offers a gorgeous nose made of white peach, red berry fruits, herbs, and fine spices. The wine is beautifully lively and delicately fruity on the palate, where a hint of whipped cream adds class to this beautifully racy wine. The finish is all about multi-layered flavors of lemon, whipped cream, floral elements, and mouthw

A beauty close to perfection. It displays intense, perfectly ripe, healthy and refined raisin fruit on the nose along with tropical hints, herbal notes and dashes of lemon juice, while the stony/mineral expressions remain rather in the background but still add excitement and distinction. On the palate, this is an incredibly juicy, piquant, refined, salty and weightless yet intense Riesling with concentrated but highly stimulating fruit. The finish is long and amazing in its sensual finesse and e
