Sort Month Year Column Dax

I have a custom column: 

Month Year = FORMAT('DimDate'[Date],"MMM YYYY")
 
Is there a way to sort this column other than the "Sort by Column" tab in the ribbon? i.e. is there a DAX formula I can use like I would for weekday
 
Day of the Week Sort = WEEKDAY([DATE_START],2)

Create a sort column in the same table as 

 

Month Year Sort = FORMAT('DimDate'[Date],"yymm")

 

Then, use Sot By column and choose this new sort column.
