Domaine Simon Colin Description
This is an exciting new domaine that owes its origins to Simon's grandfather Michel Colin (of Domaine Colin-Deléger), who split his domaine in two stages between his sons Philippe and Bruno. Simon's father Philippe has initiated the same approach and has gifted 9.30 ha of his domaine to Simon. Simon has had a varied apprenticeship as he worked with his father from 2014 to 2017 and then in South Africa, Adelsheim in Oregon and then 4 years with Domaine Sauzet. He began a small négociant operation while he was at Sauzet and finally came to an agreement with his father to buy the building and equipment to begin on his own account with his father's vineyards. Colin is in the process of applying for organic viticulture certification.
Comprised of two village parcels: En Boichot and Prarons de Dessus
Burghound: 88 Points
A fresh and distinctly earthy nose combines notes of red and dark berries with those of the sauvage. There is both good vibrancy and detail to the delicious and stony middleweight flavors that conclude in a firm, rustic and moderately austere finale. A quality Santenay villages.
Vinous: 85-87 Points
The 2022 Santenay Village has a straightforward mulberry and raspberry-scented nose, the 25% whole clusters lending a light pepperiness. The palate is a little rustic on the entry, it needs more weight and grip on the finish.
