WINETASTIC
Domaine Thomas-Collardot
Puligny-Montrachet - Burgundy
The estate is quite new on the map of Puligny-Montrachet – established in 2010, when Jacqueline inherited this 2.5ha plot from her father Pierre Thomas, who was the winemaker until 1992. The vineyard originates three generations back from the Henry Chavy estate, and from 1992 to 2010, her cousins Phillippe and Hubert Chavy were in charged.
​
The first vintage produced under the name Thomas-Collardot was 2015, and the quality, precision, and energy just keep growing. Since then, Jacqueline assisted by her son Matthieu have add a few new parcels to the estate, from different villages to Premier Cru appellations, all in Puligny-Montrachet.
​
All the vineyards of the estate are organically certified since 2020, and Jacqueline and Matthieu are practicing sustainable winemaking, while doing all the work by hand or by horse. The wines are usually spending two winters in barrels to undergo a slow elevage on lees, with very little new wood.
Their aim is to expressed the subtility of the various Puligny-Montrachet terroirs with a handful of detailed and classic Puligny-Montrachet micro-cuvées.
