2015 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey, Saint-Aubin Premier Cru, En Remilly 1x750ml

Vinous 91

Pale, bright yellow. Precise but subdued scents of lemon and wet stone. Very pure but closed, conveying lovely energy and juicy, citrussy cut to its concentrated lemon zest, mandarin orange and stone flavors. Colin’s Chatenière may be richer than this wine but it doesn’t not have the same degree of energy. Finishes very smooth, seamless and long. Last year, Colin told me that this wine has only 12.3% alcohol. [Stephen Tanzer, 01/09/2017]

Robert Parker 91

This year, the 2015 Saint Aubin 1er Cru en Remilly is a blend of two vineyards instead of three, since one parcel at the top of En Remilly suffered too much hydric stress and did not achieve full ripeness despite the rain in mid-August. It has a clean and precise bouquet with cold limestone and Granny Smith aromas. This amply displays the propitiousness of En Remilly. The palate is well balanced with a saline opening, a little spicier than Pierre-Yves’ other premier crus, with just a light smear of honey reflecting the warmth of the growing season surfacing on the finish.
