The 2023 harvest for Philippe Colin began on September 1, during warm, favourable conditions, producing wines with a fresher profile. Colin has transitioned to using primarily 500L oak barrels, contributing to a polished yet focused character in his wines. Village wines were bottled in mid-August, with Premier Crus set for December after Philippe returns from South Africa.
This vintage leans towards restraint and finesse, emphasising texture and energy rather than weight or acidity, making for a compelling and elegant collection.
"Elevated notes of yellow fruit and floral aromas, with a focused, mineral-driven palate. Lime and herbal hints linger on the finish."
Our note
What the critics say:
"Fresh pale lemon and lime. The bouquet is classy, refined and restrained. Pure white fruit and flowers. Much more finesse than En Remilly this year, with a caressing elegance that never looks weak. A lovely tensile taffeta link. Drink from 2029-2036. Tasted Oct 2024 ****"
