Joseph Colin, Saint-Aubin Premier Cru, La Chatenière, 2020
Joseph Colin is known for crafting Chardonnays of precision and restraint, with a clear focus on site expression. La Chatenière is a south-facing Premier Cru in Saint-Aubin, set on limestone-rich soils that give wines structure. The vineyard’s exposure brings more breadth than En Remilly, while Colin’s measured approach in the cellar keeps the wine balanced and composed.
The 2020 vintage is expressive and layered, offering ripe citrus, yellow apple, and subtle stone fruit, supported by gentle floral notes and a fine mineral backbone. The palate is round yet focused, with well-integrated acidity and discreet oak framing the fruit. The finish is clean and persistent, showing the warmth of the vintage and the clarity of the site.
Varietal: Chardonnay
Appellation: Saint-Aubin Premier Cru La Chatenière, Côte de Beaune, Burgundy, France
Farming: Sustainably farmed
Style: White. Structured, mineral-driven, and refined
