2015 Meursault Coche-Dury, Burgund (0,75l)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2015 Meursault, Coche-Dury

The 2015 Meursault Village is showing very well, unfurling in the glass with notes of crisp yellow orchard fruit, Anjou pear, white flowers, honeycomb and hazelnut cream. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, satiny and pure, with beautiful balance, succulent underlying acids and an elegant framing of dry extract that lends a mouthwatering quality to the long, penetrating finish. Without either the strong cooperage or reductive signatures of yesteryear's Coche-Dury, it exemplifies the new stylistic direction taken by Raphaël Coche, and it's a terrific success, surpassing both the 2014 and 2013 renditions. - William Kelley, Dez. 2018

Vinous - 2015 Meursault, Coche-Dury

(an assemblage of parcels; 25 hectoliters per hectare from purchased 100%-millerandé grapes): Pale color. Very ripe aromas of orange zest and musky lees. Chewy, dense and saline, conveying very good cut but coming across as a bit youthfully clenched in the middle palate. Finishes with a fine dusting of tannins. Raphael Coche told me that the 13.9% alcohol level here is "not his ideal." (Incidentally, don't hesitate to snap up Coche-Dury's fresh, structured, fine-grained 2015 Bourgogne Blanc, which features captivating aromas and flavors of orange oil, spices and flowers; considerable power; and a very long, dry finish with lovely lift.) - Stephen Tanzer, Sep. 2017
