Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Saint-Aubin 1er Cru La Chatenière 2013

Medium dark gold color. Complex nose of grilled pineapples, grapefruit, pear, spices, oak and just a hint of salty water breeze. Flavor profile is about the same with the addition of chalk, lime in a round mouthfeel that still gives room for the acidity to show. This is young or course and oak is there, but drank over 8 hours it did showed how good this will be after few years of ageing. Excellent+ (92)

This wine was sold at SAQ Signature stores for 66,00$ (Code SAQ : 12706001)

Domaine Tollot-Beaut et Fils Corton-Bressandes Grand Cru 1999

Dark garnet with orange rim. Wild aromas of meat, of fern and berries. Seams a little harsh to me. Dense and complex mouthfeel with flavors of spices, small black berries and an enjoyable bitterness even if felt too serious (austere) and still structured. Tasted blind, I was thinking of an older Pommard wine. Very good (89)

Did not found any information about this wine and its ageing under oak. Alcohol level of 14%
