2022 Bruno Colin 1er Cru 'Les Demoiselles' Blanc Puligny-Montrachet

Winemaker Notes:  Bruno Colin crafts this heavenly Chardonnay from one of the smallest terroirs in Puligny, perched high on the Côte de Beaune. Great wines, especially premier and grand cru Burgundies, often need time in the cellar to fully mature, but that doesn’t seem to be the case with this one. Its energy and intensity are enhanced by a gentle kiss of oak, which produces a warm hint of cinnamon-like spice that beautifully complements its crystalline fruit. Colin’s restrained winemaking approach delivers a grand wine that can be enjoyed now without the fear of missing out on something, but collectors, fear not—this bottle will unveil many pleasant surprises in years to come.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Burghound - "While compositionally similar to the Truffière, this is notably spicier while offering a hint of exotic tea as well. The pure, energetic and strikingly textured middleweight flavors brim with both minerality and dry extract on the balanced, youthfully austere and impressively long finale. This very stylish effort is a wine of finesse and it too should amply reward longer-term cellaring. Excellent. *Sweet Spot Outstanding* (93-95pts)"
