Domaine Coche-Dury was officially founded in 1973 by Jean-François Coche and is one of the most revered producers of Chardonnay in the world, with a devoted following for their exceptional quality wines. Perhaps their most coveted wine is the Grand Cru Corton-Charlemagne which comes from a tiny 0.33-hectare parcel that was planted in 1960.

Vinous
One of the more expressive wines of the night, the 1995 Corton-Charlemagne is now showing the softer contours and texture of a wine that is approaching maturity. Dried pear, sage, hazelnut and menthol shape the inviting, silky finish. There is a good bit of Coche precision, but the 1995 also presents distinctly tropical overtones that aren’t often seen in the Charlemagne. The 1995 is best enjoyed over the next handful of years, as it doesn’t quite have the structure of the very best years. Still, how many white Burgundies from the mid-1990s are this alive at age twenty? Not many.Antonio Galloni1st September 2016
