Winemaker Notes

Bruno Colin's family name has long been associated with excellence in the Côte de Beaune, and the results have been just as impressive in the years since he's run his own domaine. Having inherited top parcels in and around Chassagne-Montrachet from his family, Bruno has put his own imprint on these great sites by crafting wines characterized by greater precision and mouthwatering minerality relative to the more opulent wines his father produced. His Aligoté, from vines planted within the Chassagne-Montrachet appellation, associates the slicing acidity typical of the variety with the sheer class we have come to expect from a talented vigneron at the top of his game.

A native but unique white grape to Burgundy, Aligoté is a light bodied white that often ends up unfairly lost in Chardonnay’s shadow. In Côte Chalonnaise, in a quaint village named Bouzeron, just south of the Côte de Beaune, Aligoté has its very own appellation where yields are limited in order to enhance flavors, acidity and overall quality. Somm Secret—Curiously, the famous producer, Domaine Ponsot, bottles a 100% Aligoté from its Premier Cru in Morey-Ste-Denis, Les Monts Luisants, made from Aligoté vines planted in 1911.

A classic source of exceptional Chardonnay as well as Pinot Noir, the Côte de Beaune makes up the southern half of the Côte d’Or. Its principal wine-producing villages are Pernand-Vergelesses, Aloxe-Corton, Beaune, Pommard, Volnay, Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet.

The area is named for its own important town of Beaune, which is essentially the center of the Burgundy wine business and where many negociants center their work. Hospices de Beaune, the annual wine auction, is based here as well.
