Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey’s Saint-Aubin 2021: A Burgundy That Shines at Stoneburner
When it comes to rethinking Chardonnay, Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey’s Saint-Aubin 2021 just might make you see this classic varietal in a whole new light. At Stoneburner, we’re all about showcasing wines with character, and this White Burgundy definitely brings it. If you're hunting for great wine in Ballard, this one’s worth the trip.
The Story Behind Saint-Aubin 2021
Pierre-Yves Colin-Morey grew up with winemaking in his blood—his parents, Marc Colin and Caroline Morey, are Burgundy icons. But in the ‘90s, Pierre-Yves set off on his own, and he’s been setting a new bar ever since. His white Burgundies are famously precise, winning over even the most Chardonnay-wary among us.
Burgundy, But with a Twist
What makes Saint-Aubin 2021 so special is its story. It hails from a vineyard right next to some of Burgundy’s priciest real estate, but without the hefty price tag. Think of it as Burgundy’s best-kept secret—it shares the same premium soil and sunshine as its high-end neighbors but at a fraction of the cost. As our Wine Director, Matthew St. Onge, likes to say, “it’s just really good juice.”
Why You Need to Try It
If seafood or earthy flavors are your thing, prepare to fall in love. This Saint-Aubin pairs beautifully with seasonal fish like whitefish and salmon, and it’s perfect with cream sauce pastas. Its subtle earthiness also makes it a knockout with mushrooms and scallops—one of Matthew’s go-to pairings.

Here’s the catch—you’re not going to find Saint-Aubin 2021 just anywhere. So if you’re eager to enjoy this beautiful Burgundy, Stoneburner is your spot. Stop in, grab a glass, and see why it’s becoming a fast favorite with our team and guests alike.
