Joseph Colin Saint-Aubin 1er Cru “La Chatenière” 2023 is a highly refined white Burgundy crafted by Domaine Joseph Colin, one of the most respected modern producers in the Côte de Beaune. Known for precision winemaking and terroir transparency, Joseph Colin produces Chardonnay celebrated for purity, mineral tension, and remarkable energy.
“La Chatenière” is one of Saint-Aubin’s most highly regarded Premier Cru vineyards, situated on limestone-rich slopes that produce wines with striking freshness, linear structure, and flinty minerality. The 2023 vintage delivered expressive fruit purity balanced by vibrant acidity, resulting in a Chardonnay that is both energetic and beautifully composed. Critics praised the vintage for its concentration, minerality, and refined balance, with Burghound awarding the wine 93 points for its “vibrant and solidly powerful flavors” and chiseled mineral finish.
This cuvée showcases Saint-Aubin’s increasingly sought-after style, combining citrus brightness, orchard fruit depth, saline tension, and refined oak integration with excellent ageing potential.
