Marc Colin runs his Domaine together with his two sons. He owns some 17 hectares of vineyards in only top appellations: Montrachet, Bâtard-Montrachet, Premier Cru vineyards in Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet, Saint-Aubin and Pernand-Vergelesses. This is very exceptional. This Domaine has traditionally been known for its quality, yet Colin sees an opportunity to improve it. He is therefore receiving increasingly favorable reviews in the international press. Colin's wines excel in purity and combine strength with elegance. Perhaps a little shy in their youth, but with huge storage potential.
The 2020 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru En Montceau is delicious, floating from the glass with aromas of citrus zest, white flowers, fresh bread, candied lemon and nutmeg and pear. Medium to full bodied, satiny with good texture and concentrated ending with good tension and a long, precise finish. A topper this Premier Cru from Marc Colin.
Marc Colin comes from a wine family in Burgundy with a strong reputation. Together with his two sons, he manages a domain of 20 hectares located in the village of Saint-Aubin in the Côte de Beaune.

He is the most awarded winegrower from St-Aubin and owner of Restaurant Le Chassagne, which has 1 Michelin star.
