Marc Colin is a highly respected wine producer in the Burgundy region of France, known particularly for his exceptional white wines from the Côte de Beaune. The domaine, founded in 1970 by Marc Colin, is based in the village of Saint-Aubin, a lesser-known but highly regarded appellation for both Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Marc Colin comes from a long lineage of winemakers, with his family’s roots in Burgundy stretching back for generations. When he founded his own domaine, he initially farmed around 6 hectares of vines, producing both red and white wines. Over the years, the domaine expanded, acquiring additional vineyards in some of the most prestigious appellations in the Côte de Beaune, including Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet, and Saint-Aubin.

The success of Domaine Marc Colin is closely tied to its exceptional vineyard holdings. The domaine farms around 19 hectares of vineyards, with a focus on Chardonnay, which thrives in the limestone-rich soils of the Côte de Beaune. These vineyards are spread across 26 appellations, including several Premier Cru sites in Saint-Aubin, Chassagne-Montrachet, and Puligny-Montrachet. The domaine owns parcels in some of the most famous white wine vineyards in Burgundy, including Le Montrachet, Bâtard-Montrachet, and Les Cortons. The winemaking philosophy at Marc Colin is rooted in tradition and a deep respect for the land. The domaine practices sustainable viticulture, with minimal use of chemicals and a focus on maintaining the health of the soil and vines. The winemaking process is designed to let the terroir express itself, with careful handling of the grapes and minimal intervention in the cellar. Fermentation typically occurs in oak barrels, with a portion of new oak used depending on the cuvée. The wines are aged on the lees, which adds texture and complexity, before being bottled without filtration to preserve their purity and character.

In the late 1990s, Marc Colin's children—Damien, Caroline, and Joseph—began to take over the running of the domaine, bringing new energy and ideas while maintaining the family’s traditional approach to winemaking. The domaine was eventually split between the siblings, with Damien continuing to operate Domaine Marc Colin, while Joseph and Caroline established their own separate domaines. Under Damien’s leadership, Domaine Marc Colin has continued to produce highly regarded wines, maintaining its reputation for quality and consistency. Domaine Marc Colin produces a wide range of wines, with a particular focus on white Burgundy. The wines are known for their elegance, minerality, and ability to age gracefully. The domaine’s holdings in Saint-Aubin are among its most important, with Premier Cru vineyards such as En Remilly, La Chatenière, and Les Frionnes producing wines of exceptional quality, often praised for their balance of fruit, acidity, and minerality. The wines from the renowned appellations of Chassagne-Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet are highly sought after, particularly the Premier Cru bottlings, which showcase the depth and complexity of the terroir. The Grand Cru wines from Le Montrachet and Bâtard-Montrachet are the pinnacle of Marc Colin's portfolio, offering unparalleled richness, depth, and longevity, and are considered some of the finest expressions of Chardonnay in the world.
