Vinifikation
The vineyard covers 0.71 hectares in the «Les Prarons-Dessus»site, where the vines grow on calcareous, light, shallow, and gravelly soil. The vines were planted in 1959 and are farmed organically, with mechanical soil cultivation. The grapes are hand-harvested and destemmed on a vibrating table. Maceration lasts 15 days with minimal intervention. The parcel lies below the renowned Clos de Tavannes by the Dheune River. The name «Les Prarons» means «long meadows». The wine is aged for 12 months in 350-liter barrels, 15 to 20% of which are new, followed by a further 4 to 6 months in tanks before bottling.
Degustationsnotiz
Ruby red in color. On the nose, intense aromas of blackcurrant and raspberry unfold. The palate reveals a rich, silky texture with remarkable balance. An ethereal note is complemented by fresh fruit and spices, making this wine a thoroughly harmonious experience.

Bruno Colin
Bruno Colin is a passionate winemaker with a solid technical and commercial education from the prestigious wine school of Beaune. In 1993, he joined the family estate Michel Colin-Deleger, where he worked alongside his parents and his brother. In 2003, the family decided to divide the estate into three independent domaines: Domaine Michel Colin-Deleger, Domaine Philippe Colin, and Domaine Bruno Colin. The following year, Bruno vinified his first vintage under his own name – the beginning of an independent success story. Today, Bruno Colin cultivates around 8.55 hectares of vineyards in some of the most prestigious terroirs of the Côte de Beaune – including the communes of Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet, Saint-Aubin, Santenay, and Dezize-les-Maranges. With a total of 20 appellations – among them eight Premiers Crus in Chassagne-Montrachet – Bruno places the utmost importance on expressing the unique character of each plot. With a fine sense of balance and elegance, he captures the individuality of each parcel in his wines – precise, nuanced, and full of personality.
