After leaving his family domaine in 2005, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey has established himself as one of the rising stars of Burgundy. Pierre-Yves has built a strong reputation for crafting exquisite white Burgundy that display energy and vitality. The white wines are whole bunch pressed, fermented with natural yeasts, aged on lees for up to 18 months in mostly in 350 litre barrels with no lees stirring and no filtration. The corks used come from one tiny supplier and are extra long and extra wide (55mm x 25mm) for the village, 1er cru and Grand cru wines and are untreated with no paraffin and the bottles are then sealed with soft wax to ensure no problems with premature oxidation. The resulting wines are built to age classically up to 10 years or more.

Other Reviews....
Here too there is a smoky character to the aromas of white orchard fruit that also reflect petrol and citrus influences. There is a bit more energy to the mineral-inflected and delicious medium weight flavors that offer slightly better depth and length on the more tightly wound finale. Worth considering. Drink through 2027+.

The 2022 Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Au Bout du Monde was produced entirely from young vines, as this plot is being replanted at higher densities. Offering up aromas of orchard fruit, nutmeg and toasted hazelnuts, it's medium-bodied, with tangy acids and a mineral finish.

William Kelley - Wine Advocate (Jan 19, 2024)

The 2022 Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Au Bout du Monde comes from a parcel of vines recovered by Pierre-Yves in 2016, necessitating re-planting; therefore, the vines here are young. This has a lively, precocious bouquet with white peach and citrus scents. The palate is impressive: vibrant and energetic, quite peppery in style with a precise and persistent finish. Drink 2024-2030.

Had to replant everything in 2018 so still very young vines. Pale lemon colour, an interesting floral nose, an attractive ripeness followed by a clear-cut citrus acidity. Very good length once again. This has all the energy one associates with PYCM. Drink from 2025-2027.
