About this Item

2011 Puligny Montrachet 1er Cru les Folatieres
2 (1 x 2) 750ml

Maison Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey is a Burgundy producer based in the Côte de Beaune. It is known for its fine Chardonnay wines, and has most of its vineyard holdings in Saint-Aubin. The estate was established in 2005 by husband and wife Pierre-Yves Colin and Catherine Morey, both children of esteemed Burgundy winemakers. Colin had been winemaker at his family's winery since 1995 and in 2001 had started a négociant business with his wife. He left the family estate to establish his own label with a 6-hectare (15-acre) inheritance, the rest of the Colin vineyards going to his three siblings.

Critics Ratings

‘An intensely floral nose also reveals notes of Granny Smith apples, citrus zest and mineral reduction. There is good richness and ripeness to the naturally sweet medium-bodied flavours that exude a fine minerality on the extract-rich, mouth coating and wonderfully complex finish. I very much like the balance and delineation to the lemony finale. Good stuff though note that once again patience will be required.’ - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 90-93/100 (Jun 2013)

‘Broad and floral on the nose. Not that concentrated but delicately balanced. Bounces along. Very charming. Long.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Nov 2012)
