A large part of the explanation for the high quality is most likely found in the vineyards, where a thorough work combined with very old vines in several vineyards yield som special wines. He manages to make wines that are both fresh and resilient although the penfolds v chardonnay concentration is quite high, something very few manufacturers are able to match. The first time I tasted Coche-Dury was back in 1995 when I was served a Meursault village from 1992. This village wine nailed several Grand Crus to the wall on that occasion.

The palate is chewy on the entry, a little tough at the moment but possessing plenty of matière and delivering spicy dark berry and mulberry fruit toward the grippy finish. PNP. Flinty nose, with some nectarine and lemon. Chalky and lively palate, tons of acid and some nuanced and compressed citrus and orchard fruit. Shows beautifully and better than expected from a  solar vintage like 18. The wines we tasted may have conformed to each domaine’s reputation but there are signs of change.
I do, however, want to tell one or two stories about Coche-Dury’s history with the Winehog. Domaine Coche-Dury has a firm, warm, hedonistic place in my heart after 25 years with the wines from this legendary estate. They are unique, in the best sense of the word. Look out for the White Meursalt Premier Cru’s Charmes, Perriers, and, Genevrières. The best-known producers are Roulot, Comte Lafon & Coche Dury.

Founded by Georges Coche in the early 20th century, Domaine Coche-Dury has gained a reputation as one of the most prestigious and sought-after producers in Burgundy. The domaine is now managed by Georges' son, Jean-François Coche, who has continued the family's tradition of winemaking excellence.

This vintage is celebrated for its exceptional balance and depth, featuring a complex bouquet of aromas ranging from ripe citrus to toasted nuts. Its aging potential is notable, with many experts suggesting that the wine has not yet reached its peak, promising further development of flavors and aromas over time. The 1992 vintage from Coche-Dury stands out as a legendary year, particularly for its Meursault wines. This exceptional vintage is highly sought after by collectors and wine enthusiasts alike, due to its remarkable balance and depth. The climatic conditions of 1992 provided the perfect environment for the grapes, leading to a harvest that was both abundant and of high quality.
Deep flinty nose, showing Coche spent fireworks and lemon. Tight and chalky palate, very deep lemon rind flavors but still young and primary. We maintain strict, direct, temperature- controlled delivery from the cellar to the customer, guaranteeing the integrity of each vintage’s character and flavor profile. From cellar-to-cellar, or cellar to shelf, we maintain the highest standards, thanks to close relationships with the finest producers of wine across the globe, ensuring authenticity.

Return to form and though young, very well integrated and quite giving already on both the nose and the palate. Just lacking that matchstick and gunflint reductivity that you get with older Coche... I guess under Raphael's stewardship these wines are more approachable when young but are losing a hint of that ' je ne sais quoi' with some older vintages. This can definitely age though, and will be very good for a long time. Jean-François Coche (and since 1999 his son Raphaël) produces wines that you are often mandated to drink – but all too often for the wrong reason!

The 2010 vintage from Coche-Dury stands out as a particularly exceptional year, highly acclaimed for its remarkable balance and depth. This vintage showcases the winery's ability to produce Chardonnay that beautifully expresses the terroir of Burgundy. Wine enthusiasts often note the 2010's complex bouquet, featuring vibrant citrus notes alongside a subtle minerality, making it a standout choice for enjoying a truly exquisite white wine. Much much better than the 2014 drank a few days ago.
