The Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Ancegnières 2017 is a finely etched and quietly powerful Chardonnay from a balanced, classical vintage. Aromas of lemon oil, white peach, pear skin, and citrus blossom unfold with precision, layered with crushed limestone and subtle smoky notes. On the palate, the wine is taut and focused, driven by vibrant acidity and a firm mineral backbone that gives vertical lift. Flavors of citrus zest, orchard fruit, almond, and chalk develop gradually, gaining nuance with air. The texture is concentrated yet restrained, emphasizing structure over breadth. The finish is long, incisive, and distinctly saline—an elegant, cerebral Ancegnières that captures Pierre-Yves Colin’s signature tension and refined austerity.

Domaine Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey is one of Burgundy’s most influential and uncompromising modern estates, revered for its laser-focused, mineral-driven whites. Pierre-Yves Colin’s philosophy is rigorously minimalist: organic vineyard work, very low yields, early harvesting, no bâtonnage, and extremely restrained oak. This approach prioritizes energy, precision, and terroir transparency over richness or polish. His wines are defined by vertical structure, saline tension, and remarkable clarity. Chassagne-Montrachet is interpreted here with discipline and restraint, even from warmer sites. Colin’s Premier Crus consistently rank among the most age-worthy expressions in the appellation.
