    The wine

    Réputé pour son exposition exceptionnelle, Les Champs Gains est un premier cru très recherché à Puligny. Il doit d'ailleurs son nom à sa proximité avec le bois de Blagny. Pour réaliser cette cuvée, le domaine n'a pas ménagé sa peine dans la vigne, où une culture respectueuse est imposée, et en cave. Elevé sereinement, entre 12 et 18 mois, le vin a fait l'objet d'une fermentation malolactique et a été conservé dans une ambiance fraîche afin de préserver son éclat et sa délicatesse. Sa pureté et sa minéralité s'apprécieront volontiers au cours de ses huit premières années, notamment autour de poissons, de crustacés ou de fromage de chèvre.

    Information about domain Pierre-Yves Colin Morey

    Created in 2005, the Pierre-Yves Colin Morey domaine extends over 6 hectares on the Saint Aubin and Chassagne-Montrachetet appellations. After learning about his father's domaine (Marc Colin), Pierre-Yves decided to start his own domaine with his wife Caroline Morey. Mentioned by the specialised press as one of the "most gifted winemakers of his generation" (Revue du Vin de France), his wines, mostly from Chassagne, Meursault and Saint Aubin, must be discovered. Pierre-Yves Colin runs this small domaine with his wife Caroline, completing the production by buying grapes (one third of the volume). In the vineyards, responsible and sustainable farming prevails and in the winery, vinification needs little intervention. One of the strong points of this field is the élevage, which is mainly in demi-muids and is very subtle. This name, widely recognised by fans and professionals, is undeniably a safe bet!
