The 2017 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Folatières is a beautiful wine from a generally very good vintage for Burgundy. The winter was cool and dry, and despite a cold turn in January, the vines recovered well from the challenging 2016 season. Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey is known for its fine Chardonnay wines, favoring lengthy lees contact and barrel aging, and bottling without filtration. This particular wine pours with a vibrant green-tinged appearance and offers smoky mineral reduction alongside green melon and white peach fruits. Tasting notes also reveal flinty gunpowder, chiseled lemon, hints of tart pineapple and tangerine, and abundant minerality, leading to a medium to full-bodied palate with a long, steely finish. There's also aniseed spice and preserved lemon, with a dense, precise, and relatively compact structure, showing good detail and wonderful chalky chew. 【 It is considered one of the finest vintages of this wine ever made. 】
🍴 Food Pairing: This wine is an excellent pairing for high-end omakase dinners, langoustines, turbot with brown butter, and white truffle dishes. Its vibrant acidity and minerality also make it suitable for chicken and turkey dishes.
🥂 Event Suggestions: Perfect for a celebratory dinner, a special anniversary, or an exclusive tasting event where its elegance and complexity can be fully appreciated. Its impressive length and detailed character make it a memorable choice for discerning palates.
