2021 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Blanc "Au Bout du Monde"

At Gaston, we are thrilled to offer the 2021 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Blanc "Au Bout du Monde", a brilliant expression of Chardonnay from one of Burgundy’s rising stars. After leaving his family domaine in 2005, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey quickly established himself as a master of white Burgundy, crafting wines that are celebrated for their energy, precision, and aging potential.

The "Au Bout du Monde" comes from high-elevation vineyards in the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune, near a nature preserve. These cool-climate vines escaped the frost of 2021, resulting in a wine that showcases bright citrus, crisp orchard fruit, and salty minerality. Fermented in older oak casks and aged on lees for 18 months without stirring or filtration, the wine is structured for long aging, with a freshness and complexity that evolve beautifully over time.

Tasting Notes and Accolades

  • Allen Meadows (Burghound): 86-89 points – Broad notes of mineral reduction, pear, and white flowers with a sleek, mineral-inflected finish.
  • William Kelley (Wine Advocate): 87-88 points – Medium-bodied, bright, and precise, with crisp orchard fruit, citrus zest, and toasted nuts.
  • Neal Martin (Vinous): 88-90 points – Fragrant nose of Nashi pear and Granny Smith apple, with a balanced palate and notable terroir-driven complexity.
