===== Background Information =====
 This is a spin-off of Colin-Deleger, where Michel Colin divided most of his vineyard holdings between his two sons, Bruno and Philippe.\\ 

  * In vintage 2004: Bruno states that he follows most of his father's techniques except that "he may stir the the lees a bit longer in the spring." [Ed Note by Don Cornwell--Colin-Deleger was already one of the estates with major problems in terms of premature oxidation and anecdotally was a relatively low S02 user as well as one of the longest lees stirrers in vintage 2000. So this statement is anything but a good sign in my view.]
  * In vintage 2005: M/L's completed in January-February, but stirred the lees until early May; free SO2 level increased to 40 ppm beginning this vintage
  * In vintage 2010: Currently bottling at 35 pmm free SO2.

===== 2005 =====

  * **Puligny-Montrachet La Truffieres** (1st bottle 12/2009, 2nd bottle 01/2011): Purchased from reputable retailer in Vancouver. Both oxidised, 2nd undrinkable. [Peter Skarsgard]
  * **Chassagne-Montrachet Les chaumèes** (February 2011). Not oxidised. Very much in its juvenile phase. [Jorfra]
  * **Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Morgeot** (December 31, 2014). Purchased from reputable retailer and stored in wine fridge. Oxidized and undrinkable. [Jbeeby]
  * **Chassagne-Montrachet 1er Cru En Remilly** (May 12, 2020). Oxidized, tasted 10 years older than it should. [Jammy Wine]
===== 2006 =====

  * **Chassagne-Montrachet En Remilly** (June 2012): advanced but not fully oxidized [droch]
  * **Puligny–Montrachet "La Truffière"** (Jun. – Aug. 2019): 1 btl not oxidized + 1 btl oxidized. 14% ABV (!). The good bottle was yellow gold in color. Very lovely, but richer & fatter than in other vintages. A firm mineral backbone, however, keeps the richness in check on the palate. In this vintage, the style of this wine reminds me of his father Michel's PM "Les Demoiselles". From a lot of 2 purchased in Jan. 2018 from the auction platform of a reputable West Coast retailer.

===== 2007 =====

  * **Puligny–Montrachet "La Truffière"** (2013 – 2015): 6 btls not oxidized. A magnificent 21st century white Burgundy with old–school aromatics & flavors. From a half–case purchased in 2011 from the domaine's West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]
===== 2008 =====

  * **Chassange-Montrachet Les Vergers** (April 2015): Case from reputable retailer and stored in walk-in cellar at 55-57o since purchased. First bottle was fully oxidized and undrinkable. Second bottle shows advanced oxidation but still drinkable.
\\ 
===== 2009 =====

  * **Chassagne–Montrachet "Les Vergers"** (Sep. 2017 – Nov. 2019): 12 btls not oxidized. Lovely nose of delicate orchard fruits complicated by earthy minerality. Comparatively sweet & fat on the palate by 21st century white Burgundy standards. Decanting optional. From a case purchased in 2011 from the domaine's West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]
  * **Chassagne–Montrachet "Blanchot Dessus"** (Nov. 2017 – Jul. 2020): 6 btls not oxidized. Delicate perfume of white flowers. Leaner & less developed on the palate than the Les Vergers. No rush to drink. Best served decanted. From a half–case purchased in 2011 from the domaine's West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]
  * **Puligny–Montrachet "La Truffière"** (Apr. 2018 – Jul. 2020): 6 btls not oxidized. Orange flower & a touch of flint in the nose. Youthful on the palate like the Blanchot Dessus, but richer & more complex. No rush to drink. Best served decanted. From a half–case purchased in 2011 from the domaine's West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]

===== 2010 =====

  * **Chassagne-Montrachet Blanchot Dessus** (December 2016): Not oxized [C. Jang]
  * **Chassagne–Montrachet “Les Vergers”** (Jul. 2020 –  Oct. 2021): 5 btls not oxidized + 1 advanced. The good btls have a youthful color of pale gold. A contest between exotic, ripe orchard fruits, citrus blossom, & mineralité in the nose & on the palate. Richly textured & delicious. Decanting recommended. The advanced btl (Apr. 2021) was a first for us from this domaine. From a half case purchased in 2012 from the domaine's West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]
  * **Puligny-Montrachet La Truffieres** (November 2015): young to mature; not oxidized [Howard Cooper]
  * **Puligny–Montrachet "La Truffière"** (Oct. 2020 – Mar. 2022): 6 btls not oxidized. Youthful color of pale yellow. Earlier btls needed decanting. Notes of citrus blossom & citrus peel emerge after some coaxing. Youthful flavors of green fruits laced with mineralité as the wine opens up in the glass. From a half case purchased in 2012 from the domaine's West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]

===== 2011 =====

  * **Chassagne-Montrachet Boudriotte** (Feb 2017, June 2018): fine [Adrian Latimer]
  * **Chassagne–Montrachet "Les Vergers"** (Apr. 2021 – Apr. 2023): 6 btls not oxidized. The first btl appeared to be somewhat darker in color than the other 5, but was perfectly fine & served decanted. Classic Bruno style of Les Vergers, very mineral & taut, with just a little muskiness in the nose. Decanting definitely helps. From a half case purchased in 2013 from the domaine's West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]
  * **Puligny–Montrachet "La Truffière"** (Jun. 2022 – ): 6 btls not oxidized. Very refined nose of orange blossom & white flowers. Muskiness quite pronounced in some btls. Citrus & a hint of orchard fruits on the palate. Exceptionally well–balanced & delicious. From 7 btls purchased in 2013 from the domaine's West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]


===== 2012 =====

  * **Chassagne–Montrachet "Les Vergers"** (Jul. 2024 – ): 1 btl not oxidized. Somewhat darker in color than expected, but nothing wrong. Citrus blossom & citrus pith in the nose, quite lovely. Softer & more relaxed on the palate than the 2011's, with a fatter profile & generous layers of orchard fruit offering counterpoint to the mineralité. From a half case purchased in 2014 from the domaine's West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]
  * **Chassagne–Montrachet "Blanchot Dessus"** (Oct. 2024 – ):1 btl not oxidized. Pale yellow gold. Citrus pith in the nose, not as forward as the "Les Vergers". Still quite tight on the palate even after decanting, with a core of citrus & mineralité but little surrounding fat. From a half case purchased in 2014 from the domaine's West Coast importer Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant. [Rayner Cheung]
