Philippe Colin, Chassage-Montrachet, Les Chenes, rouge 2016 GRASSL Complete nose

Philippe Colin, Chassage-Montrachet, Les Chenes, rouge 2016 GRASSL Complete noseBased in spacious new premises on the outskirts of Chassagne, Philippe Colin is very much a chip off the old block his father being the renowned Michel Colin Delger. He makes wines of energy and precision, never over oaked, and with plenty of concentration behind them.
