Description

Domaine Coche-Dury is a highly regarded Burgundy wine producer, which was established in the 1920s. The estate, which is currently led by Raphaël Coche-Dury, consists of approximately nine hectares, predominantly in and around their winery in Meursault. This particular release comes from Perrières, a Premier Cru vineyard situated at the southern end of Meursault – considered by many to be the best of the region. The 2012 vintage is drinking incredibly well now. It is a dense yet fresh wine, offering some bright acidity, strong mineral presence and a long finish.

About this wine

This 2012 vintage of the prestigious Meursault Perrieres by Domaine Coche-Dury, although marked by a damaged capsule making it unsuitable for shipping, represents the pinnacle of Burgundy Chardonnay. It epitomizes the balance between richness and acidity, with complex flavors that evolve beautifully over time. The wine offers a complex bouquet of citrus, stone fruit, and toasted nuts over a grounded minerality. On the palate, it exhibits deep fruit flavors balanced by vibrant acidity, leading to a long, nuanced finish. Aging has potential to further harmonize its components. N/A
