Critic Scores, Reviews & Descriptions

We also talked of this history of the Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey label, and that bears reiterating here to help readers better understand these wines. In its inception, this was a négociant label, with Pierre-Yves depositing empty (new) barrels with his suppliers and collecting them when they had been filled: in 2001, he debuted with six barrels; in 2002, 12, and by 2005, the last year of exclusively négociant production, fully 28 barrels. Since then, Pierre-Yves has gradually augmented his domaine holdings, beginning with his 13-hectare share of Domaine Marc Colin and supplemented by seven hectares inherited by his wife, Caroline Morey. Concomitantly, his purchases as a négociant have diminished; and when he does buy, he prefers (quite naturally) to buy in fruit than in must. Some of the parcels whose grapes he purchases, he farms, as is the case with his Bâtard-Montrachet, Corton-Charlemagne and some of his communal Meursault cuvée. And sometimes, even if he doesn't farm the parcel, it's his team that picks at harvest time: this is the case for his Meursault Perrières. Purchased grapes, it's worth noting, are never vinified together with domaine fruit, so every cuvée consists of either one or the other. In resumé, then, this is the story of a négociant label that has become more and more of a domaine—and not remotely the reverse, a claim I recently overheard (and contradicted).
