The 2015 Bourgogne Hautes-côtes De Beaune 'Vignes Baudet' Rouge is a brilliant effort from Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey. While Pierre-Yves is typically known more for his outstanding blancs, this limited production rouge is simply delightful. This elegant and precisely focused Pinot Noir delivers lovely aromatics of wild berries, cherries, smoky minerals and light spices all come together beautifully and jump from the glass. On the palate this is light/medium bodied with a lovely fine silky texture and wonderful overall balance and finesse, as it remains fresh and inviting all the way through the finish. This is drinking absolutely beautifully right now and there is no reason to wait any longer, although it should continue to show well over the next handful of years. This is an astonishing value from one of the finest young producers in Burgundy. (Best 2017-2022) - June, 2017 (JD)
