Domaine Collotte wines hold a rich history that stems from the deep connection between Philippe and Isabelle Collotte and the land they cultivate. With a profound understanding that greatness lies within the vineyards themselves, the Collottes have nurtured their vines with unwavering dedication. From Marsannay to Chambolle-Musigny, Fixin to Gevrey-Chambertin, each parcel of land assumes its own distinctive character under their care.
Philippe Collotte's extensive knowledge of diverse terroirs enables him to practice meticulous viticulture, prioritizing the preservation of the soil, flora, and fauna. The estate, proudly holding the Certified High Environmental Quality (level 3) designation, rejects the notion of dominating or controlling the vines at any cost. Instead, the Collottes strive to harmoniously accompany and support them, vintage after vintage, ensuring a sustainable and balanced approach.
Recognizing that the vine is a living entity and each vintage brings its own surprises and uncertainties, the Collottes approach their work with great humility and wisdom. They resist adhering to rigid methodologies, constantly reassessing their practices and adapting accordingly. The terroir becomes their guide, with its unique voice and character directing their every move in the pursuit of excellence.
In both the vat room and cellar, Isabelle Collotte is driven by a relentless quest to unveil the true identity of each terroir. This unwavering dedication to authenticity is evident in the gentle vinification and maturation processes employed. The goal is to preserve the essence of the terroir, allowing it to shine through in every bottle. From harvest to bottling, the wines are handled with care, never rushed or pushed beyond their limits, ultimately delivering maximum pleasure, finesse, and freshness.
Domaine Collotte firmly believes in retaining complete control over every aspect of the winemaking process. From working the soil to marketing and, of course, bottling, every step is meticulously overseen by the Collotte family. Building upon their legacy, the estate has embraced new installations since the 2019 vintage, further enhancing their ability to craft exceptional wines.
