Joseph Colin joined his father Marc at their family's venerable estate in 1993 at the age of 19. When his older brother, Pierre-Yves, left in 2004 to start his domaine with wife Caroline Morey, Joseph became the lead decision maker in the vineyards and cellar. in 2017 Joseph took his 25 years of experience and about 6 hectares of prime parcels from the family domaine to create his own label and domaine. Though technically a brand new estate, the generational knowledge combined with old vines in top terroirs help to rocket Joseph Colin to the top tier of white wine producers in Burgundy.

The 1er Cru OSA is a direct response to the challenging and very, very small vintage in 2021. Because the yields were so drastically reduced, Joseph combined three of his best crus, Sur le Sentier du Clou, Sous Roche Dumay, and Les Combes into a single cuvée. Aged and fermented in neutral 500 and 228 liter barrels, this wine is racy and complex but with underlying structure and weight. The small quantities led to extraordinary quality. Decant for 30 minutes or more and aromas of lemon zest, green apple, jasmine, white pepper and licorice emerge. Serve at 50 degrees in a Burgundy stem. Drinking window from now until 2035.
