2019 Domaine Coche-Dury Meursault, Burgundy, France

ABOUT THIS WINE

The 2019 Domaine Coche‑Dury Meursault is a deeply expressive white Burgundy from one of the region’s most esteemed producers. Sourced from limestone‑rich vineyards in the Meursault appellation, this vintage reveals both texture and precision—an interplay of ripe fruit and vibrant freshness.

On the nose, expect layered aromatics: orchard favorites like pear and white peach, citrus blossoms, lemon zest, and a hint of toasted hazelnut and brioche. The palate is seamless and refined, with concentrated fruit balanced by bright acidity and a chalky mineral thread. Flavors of crisp apple, citrus peel, stone fruit, and a touch of crème fraîche are woven into a creamy yet taut structure that never feels heavy.

The élevage in well‑judged oak adds dimension and complexity while preserving purity of fruit. The finish is persistent and saline, echoing the wine’s mineral core and leaving a lasting impression of depth and poise.
