Domaine Marc Colin & Fils
About Domaine Marac Colin & Fils
Marc Colin created his Domaine in the 1970s, by taking back vineyards that had been in the Colin and Ponavoy families for more than a century, beginning with six hectares. During the 1980s and 1990s, he and his wife Michèle continued to expand the domaine across St Aubin, Chassagne, Puligny and Santenay until it reached 30 hectares. Since then, two of the four children, Pierre-Yves (of PYCM) and Joseph, have, at various stages, taken their share of the family vineyards and started their own businesses.
Today, Damien and Caroline run the family business with about 12 hectares across 26 appellations. From their immaculate cellar in St Aubin, Damien creates a superb range of wines that are both pristine and expressive. There are no special techniques, ‘just keep it simple’ is Damien’s mantra but when required, there is immaculate attention to detail. Rapidly gaining a reputation as one of the best white wine specialists in Burgundy, he has been called the Jean-Marc Roulot in Saint Aubin by Neal Martin
“Domaine Marc Colin is one of the best growers in the Côte de Beaune, perhaps to Saint Aubin what Jean-Marc Roulot is to Meursault. And you can quote me on that” - Neal Martin on Marc Colin

Vinous (93-95)The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Vides Bourses 1er Cru presents a complex nose of citrus fruit, popcorn and a touch of grilled walnut, all very well defined and terroir-expressive. The well-balanced palate delivers the same concentration and verve as the Les Champs Gain, and turns quite saline toward the finish, which lingers wonderfully. This is a class act, but try to resist temptation for the first 4–5 years. |

Vinous (92-94)The 2020 Saint-Aubin Le Charmois 1er Cru has a killer nose of crushed stone aromas, plus hints of shucked oyster shell and light loamy scents. The palate is wonderfully balanced, poised and focused, with veins of blood orange and nectarine and a beautifully defined finish. This is one of the standout cuvées from Damien Colin this vintage. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (95-97)2 barrels of one year old wood, chosen from the best of the previous year. Deep full yellow, in comparison to its stable mates, but in fact still light. This is taking time to wake up on the nose. There is a good backing from the oak, a slight youthful bitterness. A very substantial weight. Good acidity too just makes its appearance right at the back. This will need time. Tasted: October 2021 |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-93)Around 65 year old vines. Deep purple. The bouquet shows an explosion of ripe deep raspberry fruit. Reaching for fruit freshness and a little gourmandise and all that has arrived quite naturally in 2020. I’ll have a magnum of this whenever you want! Seamless and with supple tannins. Tasted: October 2021 |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-94)From four plots, includes some younger vines, very vivacious from its lemon and lime colour onwards, a little positive reduction on the nose. Phenolic maturity arrived here at around 12.5% and it is clear that Damien hit the picking date exactly right, to make this gorgeous wine. Tasted: October 2021 |
