2018 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Bourgogne Aligote, Burgundy

This all comes from the lieu-dit of Le Trezin located high on the slope giving a very mineral cooler style of wine. In 2017 they forgot to lodge the papers with the appellation authorities in time so this is just labelled Puligny village without recognising the lieu-dit name this vintage. Racy and finely textured this shows bright citric fruit and excellent length and vigour. Excellent.

Coming mostly from vines located in the Hautes Cotes de Beaune (90%) and also in Chassagne Montrachet (10%). All aged in 228 litre barrels and racked and bottled before the 2019 harvest in late August 2019 after 11 months on lees. Strikingly pure and very expressive even in its youth. Very fresh though with good depth and texture this wine carries a refreshing 12% alc.
