The 2024 Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey Santenay 1er Cru La Comme Rouge is a refined Pinot Noir from one of Santenay’s most prized Premier Cru vineyards. La Comme sits at the northern end of Santenay, directly bordering Chassagne-Montrachet, and is known for producing wines with unusual finesse and mineral detail. PYCM works with vines over 50 years old in this site, bringing concentration and depth to its naturally elegant character.
The 2024 vintage shows bright red cherry, redcurrant and wild strawberry with subtle floral, savoury and mineral notes. The palate is fresh and precise, with fine-grained tannins, vibrant acidity and an attractive saline quality through the finish. The style combines Santenay’s natural structure with the delicacy and precision associated with Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey’s reds.
Ben's Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, La Comme is a superb choice for Burgundy lovers seeking the precision of PYCM without stepping into the pricing of the domaine’s top Côte de Nuits reds. Its position beside Chassagne-Montrachet gives it greater finesse than many traditional Santenay wines, while retaining enough structure for rewarding bottle development. The 2024 is elegant, mineral and beautifully composed. Drink from 2028 onwards or cellar for 10–15+ years. Perfect with duck, roast chicken, quail, pork and wild mushroom dishes.
