Joseph Colin Saint-Aubin 1er Cru “Les Champlots” 2021 is a refined white Burgundy crafted by Domaine Joseph Colin, one of the Côte de Beaune’s most respected modern Chardonnay producers. Known for precision winemaking and terroir transparency, Joseph Colin produces wines celebrated for their purity, energy, and mineral-driven finesse.
“Les Champlots” is a Premier Cru vineyard in Saint-Aubin known for producing Chardonnay with freshness, tension, and expressive limestone minerality. The 2021 vintage in Burgundy was marked by cooler growing conditions and lower yields, resulting in wines with classical balance, vibrant acidity, and exceptional aromatic precision. Critics described this cuvée as fresh and bright, showing apple compote, acacia blossom, and concentrated mineral-driven structure with excellent ageing potential.
Joseph Colin’s restrained oak usage and hands-off cellar philosophy allow the vineyard character to shine through, delivering a Chardonnay that combines citrus precision, orchard fruit depth, saline tension, and refined texture.
