Vinous
(just a bit of frost here; these heavily virused vines planted in the 1950s routinely produce tiny grapes, according to Coche): Lively aromas of lime, lemon and crushed stone. At once dense and penetrating, conveying terrific concentration and inner-mouth tension. (Coche told me he considers this wine to be almost at the level of the unfrosted vineyards in 2016.) This dynamic Genevrières communicates a strong impression of dry extract and finishes with terrific lift and slowly mounting floral perfume. Lay it down for at least five or six years.Stephen Tanzer1st September 2018

The Domaine is celebrated for its superb and highly acclaimed Chardonnay including Meursault Perrières, Meursault Les Chevalières, Corton Charlemagne and Puligny Montrachet Les Enseignères. With tiny yields and meticulous wine making, the Coche-Dury name is truly iconic on the Burgundy stage.
