Lequin-Colin, Chassagne-Montrachet, Clos Devant, 2022
This is a little-known clos, a walled (or once walled) vineyard, beneath the village of Chassagne, on the same mid-slope line as the Grand Crus, and just two vineyards away from Criots. Lovely nose of citrus with a touch of honey. Richly textured... Read More

The Burgundy Pyramid
Making sense of the complexity of the complexity of Burgundy isn’t easy.
Though Burgundy only comprises 5% of France’s vineyard area, it holds 100 different Appellations, 25% of the entire French total. There are no less than 5,000 growers, 85% of whom own less than 10 hectares, and four fifths of them make wine.
To make matters...

René Lequin-Colin
Santenay, France
This 9 hectare family domaine, which dates back over 300 years, has a lovely range of vineyards, deriving from the marital conjoining of Lequins from Santenay and Colins from Chassagne-Montrachet.
We think he makes no less than seventeen wines, though some in very small quantities, for example just one specially made small barrel of Batard-Montrachet!...

Chardonnay
Chardonnay is one of the most-widely planted varieties in the world.
Arguably not the most characterful grape, hence its common ageing in oak, yet at its pinnacle in Burgundy it produces some of the greatest (and certainly most expensive) white wines in the world. Look out for unoaked Chardonnay, it can make a pleasant change, and usually goes down very well with all those people who...

Lequin-Colin, Chassagne-Montrachet, Clos Devant, 2022
This is a little-known clos, a walled (or once walled) vineyard, beneath the village of Chassagne, on the same mid-slope line as the Grand Crus, and just two vineyards away from Criots. Lovely nose of citrus with a touch of honey. Richly textured and attractively long. 2025-2029
Certified organic though this is not stated on the label. From a little-known Clos below the village, on the same mid slope as the grands crus, not far from Criots.
Nutty, spicy citrus aroma with a touch of mineral/stone-dust to lift it beyond fruit and oak. Complex already, if embryonically so. Very well balanced and with notable freshness for 2022. Deep and long. Really classy and could easily be a premier cru. 17/20, 2025-2032, Julia Harding MW, www.jancisrobinson.com 19th February 2024
Great choice of good-value wines in the January sales. The website is really easy to use to make up an order. Delivery, as is often the case, was within 24 hours and, as usual, was well-packed.Read More
