creamy, even can tastes red fruits flavour. maybe the condition of the bottle, it's very different from my previous coche 2010 experience. less complexity and powerful.

This is brilliant. Incredibly complex mélange of Bartlett pear fruit and innumerable minerals and delicate herbs. Pale and gorgeous. Steely yet not at all austere. Arguably the ultimate Perrières. Mature and at peak and no oxidation.

Compared with the various Coche Corton Charlemagne’s we had, the Meursault Perrières was clearly more delicate. But it was also more elegant and mutifaceted. Gorgeous bouquet. Airy. The intensity of the white fruit was a perfect match for the lemon, lime and pear fruit. It seems almost young. Delightful.

Another brilliant performance from Coche. There was a greasy stain on the top of the slightly depressed cork that had be worried it might have leaked but there was no sign of that in the wine. The color is a healthy medium yellow. This is not one of those movie theater buttered popcorn concoctions of the Jean François era; son Raphaël in his first vintage made a slightly less exuberant version of Meursault. But what is gives up in flamboyance, it gains in elegance and precision. The flavors are a mixed bag of citrus, including bergamot as the astute perfume tester at the table noted. No lack of power or mid palate density. I thought it might be just a smidgeon shy of full maturity but if it’s all there, give me more now.

Reductive, gunflint aromatics. Incredibly pure palate, aching intensity and length. Note this is still very tight and needs time.
