While the family does own prime territory in Chassagne, home base in St. Aubin features parcels of the very best vineyards, like Chatenière. These vineyards accrue prestige due to their sloped location; while much of St. Aubin resides on flat ground (rendering less interesting wines) the Colin properties are all situated on finely pitched hillsides. The resulting wines shimmer with savory minerality and luster.
