2009 Meursault, Domaine Coche-Dury
Domaine Coche-Dury is one of Burgundy’s legendary estates, based in Meursault and long regarded as producing some of the World's finest Chardonnay. The domaine combines meticulous vineyard work with an exacting, deeply traditional cellar approach. The wines are famed for their intensity, longevity and pinpoint precision that has made Coche-Dury one of the most sought-after names in Burgundy.
"The 2009 Meursault Villages is drinking brilliantly, wafting from the glass with a beautiful nose of preserved citrus, crisp peach, nougat and honeysuckle. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, layered and elegantly textural—glossier and more sweetly sun-kissed than the 2008 drank alongside it but bright and precise nonetheless, with beautiful energy and delineation on the finish. Drink 2018-2028." William Kelley, The Wine Advocate, Dec 2018
