Depth, refinement and mineral precision define this distinguished Premier Cru Meursault from one of Burgundy’s most revered modern domaines. The 2023 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Meursault 1er Cru Charmes is sourced from the celebrated Charmes climat in Meursault, a vineyard renowned for producing wines of richness, texture and remarkable complexity. Situated on clay-limestone soils in the southern section of the appellation, Charmes traditionally yields broader, more generous wines, yet Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey brings notable restraint and tension to the style through his meticulous vineyard work and carefully judged élevage. The domaine is known for preserving site transparency above all else, favouring precision, freshness and mineral drive over overt oak influence or excessive weight.
The 2023 vintage captures an impressive balance between Meursault’s natural opulence and the domaine’s signature energy and focus. In the glass, the wine reveals layered citrus and orchard fruit framed by smoky reduction, crushed stone minerality and subtle oak spice. The palate is concentrated yet remarkably poised, with bright acidity providing lift and definition throughout. Extended lees ageing contributes texture and complexity without diminishing the wine’s crystalline purity. There is both generosity and discipline here, with the richness of Charmes carefully balanced by saline tension and persistent mineral length. The result is a sophisticated and age-worthy Meursault Premier Cru that will reward both early enjoyment and long-term cellaring over the next decade or more.

An ample yet energetic Charmes, showing ripe stone fruit, citrus oil and fine mineral detail, with notable elegance for the appellation.
The 2023 Meursault Charmes 1er Cru has a very expressive bouquet with yellow orchard fruit, citrus peel and subtle reduction. The palate is concentrated and harmonious with impressive depth, balanced by fine acidity and mineral persistence.
A ripe yet attractively fresh nose combines notes of acacia blossom, citrus confit, hazelnut and discreet oak. The rich, concentrated and generously proportioned flavours possess excellent mid-palate density while remaining refined and balanced.
Established as one of the young rising stars of Burgundy, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey in 2005 left his family Domaine, Marc Colin, where he gained a solid reputation for his outstanding white wines. Pierre-Yves took control of a share of the family vineyards (Domaine Marc Colin) from 2006 vintage. His first vintages have been made from vineyards and growers that he works closely with buying the wine as must and aging the wines in barrels which he has supplied. If the resulting wines meet his standards the barrels of wine purchased are then matured in his own cold cellar below his house in Chassagne Montrachet.
“This is not just one of the top domaines in the Cote de Beaune in Burgundy, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey is now well recognised as one of the greatest winemakers and domaines in the world. Consistently producing benchmark wines in each vintage.”

The Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey estate was born in 2001 from the association of Pierre-Yves Colin (son of Marc) and Caroline Morey (daughter of Jean-Marc). Today they operate 13 hectares in the villages of Saint-Aubin, Chassagne-Montrachet, Santenay, Puligny-Montrachet and Meursault. Their production consists of 92% Chardonnay, 5% Pinot Noir and 3% of Aligoté grape variety. Working about 2 hectares from the family heritage, the other plots have come from different acquisitions over the last fifteen years, as well as a few plots in Fermages.
Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey’s philosophy is simple yet profound: to create wines that speak to the unique character of their terroir. By embracing organic and biodynamic farming practices, he ensures that his vines are in harmony with nature, allowing each vineyard’s potential to shine through in the wines. In the winery, Pierre-Yves follows a minimal intervention approach, letting the natural yeast drive fermentation and allowing the wines to mature on their lees to develop depth and complexity. His wines are celebrated for their purity, elegance, and their ability to age gracefully, reflecting the precision of his craftsmanship and the distinctive beauty of Burgundy’s finest vineyards.
Aromas of ripe pear, white peach and preserved lemon unfold alongside notes of toasted hazelnut, crushed chalk, citrus blossom and delicate smoky reduction.
Concentrated orchard fruit and citrus curd are supported by vibrant acidity and pronounced limestone minerality, with subtle oak spice and a refined creamy texture adding depth and structure.
A long, saline finish marked by citrus oil, wet stone, almond and chalky tension, lingering with impressive precision and elegance.
