Colin-Morey/Pierre-Yves St-Aubin 1er cru La Chatenière 2023

94 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "Although near Champelots, La Chatenière is more a continuation of En Remilly, delivering wines with lemony fruit and crisp acidity. The family farms three parcels here; the one with younger vines brings acidity, the other two are 50–60 years of age and deliver ripeness and volume. The blend of all three produces a marvellous result. The grapes are pressed as whole clusters and fermented in cask, one-third new. Drinking Window: 2027-2040. (Nov 2024)"

92-94 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "A clean lemon yellow. This is really classy in bouquet, with an agreeable ripeness of fruit without losing the steely character, filling the middle of the palate with more in reserve behind, medium acidity, fine length, a very complete St-Aubin. Drink from 2027-2032. Tasted Oct 2024."

92-94 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2023 Saint-Aubin La Chatenière 1er Cru has more reduction on the nose compared to Colin's other Premier Crus. The palate is fresh on the entry, quite intense with a little flintiness in the background. Once the 2023 is in bottle, its razor-sharp finish is going to be a killer. This might need a bit more time in bottle but it's a superb articulation of this vineyard. Drink: 2027-2045. (Jan 2025)"

91-93 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "Aromas of pear, white flowers, nutmeg, toasted hazelnuts and clear honey introduce the 2023 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru La Chatenière, a medium to full-bodied, ample and satiny wine that's seamless and saline. Precise but open, this will offer a broad drinking window. (Jan 2025)"
