Description
History
Domaine Coche-Dury, based in Meursault, is regarded as one of the world’s greatest Chardonnay producers. Extremely low yields, obsessive vineyard care and meticulous cellar work define the domaine’s legendary style. The Meursault parcels lie on limestone-marl soils rich in marine fossils, giving the wines their trademark tension and aromatic purity. The 2016 vintage, low in quantity but superb in quality, produced vibrant, concentrated and age-worthy wines.
Grape variety

Vinification
Gentle pressing, fermentation in French oak barrels with indigenous yeasts, around one year ageing in oak with a proportion of new wood, moderate bâtonnage and extended time on fine lees for depth and texture. Bottled with minimal intervention to preserve purity and precision.

Tasting notes
Bright straw yellow. Aromas of ripe citrus, white peach, green apple, fresh almond, white flowers and the domaine’s signature subtle smoky-toasty note. On the palate: vibrant acidity, refined structure, incisive minerality and a long, layered and complex finish. A Meursault of exceptional class.
Food pairings
Perfect with scallops, shellfish, sole meunière, amberjack tartare, seafood risotto, elegant roast chicken, porcini mushrooms, refined vegetarian dishes and soft cheeses.
