Domaine Simon Colin

The history of Domaine Simon Colin can be defined in two parts. First, since 2017, I have been committed to sharing my vision of wine with you through confidential vintages directly from what I like to call my "laboratory."

 

The idea behind this business was to combine my experience gained in France and abroad with a thirst for answers about the world of wine. This is how I was able to enter it and create my own label.

After four years working on this miniature trading project, the opportunity arose to take over some family vineyards in my own name. Consequently, in 2021 I signed my first vintage with an estate made up of approximately 9 hectares of vines. I am projecting myself towards a singular vision of viticulture and oenology while respecting family know-how. Aware of the challenges of today's world, I try to apply thoughtful and efficient work inspired by organic and biodynamic agriculture.

- The origins of the family estate date back to the 1850s

- Simon is the 5th generation of winegrower in the family

- Domaine Simon Colin was founded in 2017 as a micro-negociant before taking over its own vineyards in 2021.

- The estate is located in the village of Chassagne-Montrachet

- 9.3 hectares of vines spread over 15 appellations in the terroirs of Saint-Aubin, Chassagne-Montrachet, Santenay and Maranges 

 

  • 2 white regional appellations
  • 2 white village appellations
  • 6 white 1er cru appellations
  • 2 red village appellations
  • 3 red 1er cru appellations

 

- Controlled yields to bring out the best in the terroir. Between 35 and 45 hectolitres per hectare for red wines and between 45 and 55 hectolitres per hectare for white wines.

- Currently undergoing organic certification, first certification in 2024. Also inspired by certain biodynamic practices

- Whole harvest for the whites, partially destemmed for the reds

- Aged in oak barrels for around 12 months, then in vats for 3 to 4 months.  20 to 25% new oak for the whites, 25 to 33% new oak for the reds.

 

  • History of the Simon Colin estate

 

Simon Colin is descended from a long line of winegrowers, more precisely the 5th generation of the family. The first Colins made their first wines back in the 1850s, so it's fair to say that Simon has wine in his blood!

More recently, the estate was known as Colin-Deleger until 2015. Part of the family estate had already been sold to the sons, Bruno and Phillipe (Simon's father) in 2004, before the entire Colin-Deleger estate was split between the two sons in 2015 when Michel Colin and Bernadette Deleger decided to retire.

 

After completing his studies, Simon decided to follow in his father's footsteps and, in 2017, launched his own business in 'Laboratory' mode, producing confidential cuvées alongside his work at Domaine Sauzet. The aim was to use all the knowledge he had acquired in France and abroad (in Oregon and South Africa) to find his own brand and style. Simon wanted to be totally independent so that he could express his own vision of wine without being influenced.

After 4 years of hard work in his micro-negociant, in 2021 he will be lucky enough to be able to take over 2/3 of the vines of his father's Phillipe Colin estate. 2021 will therefore be the first vintage in which Simon will be able to manage the estate 100%, both in the winery and in the vines.
