Tasting Notes

The “La Combe” is vibrant and vivacious, with zingy citrus fruit and white floral aromas.

Joseph Colin initially trained at Domaine Marc Colin, working alongside his brother, Pierre-Yves, to make the family wines. In 2016, Joseph decided to create his own Domaine, and, subsequently, inherited just over six hectares of vineyards from his family holding, representing about nineteen different appellations, to start his exciting new venture. This Bourgogne is a blend of seven parcels from cooler parts of Joseph’s vineyards.

In bottle since September. Pale lemon colour. An attractive quite lean bouquet, yet with elegance. The Joseph Colin style in a nutshell. Definitely lean on the palate yet with ripe enough tendrils of flavour, plus a fresh citrus overcoat. Drink from 2025-2027. Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy.

100% Chardonnay.

Technical notes

Only healthy grapes make it to the press; the wines are also handled as little as possible, therefore there is no bâttonage, filtration or fining and no sulphur is used during the winemaking process until racking where minimal amounts are used. Fermentation and maceration is processed in 350-litre oak barrels for 12 months, before three months in stainless before bottling.
