 Tasted by sjwshiraz on 12/31/2023: Almost perfection (247 views)
 Tasted by Alex G. on 12/16/2022: Huge wine, such intensity it's ultimately overboard. The viscosity is at a level rarely achieved in Burgundy, and that I loved. However the intensity of flavor was so much it started to overlap with New World style. My gut tells me this will be quite special with another 10-15 years to resolve itself, clearly the material is there. In sum, this wine is excellent but somewhat controversial at this stage and given current pricing anything less than perfection winds up being a disappointment. (765 views)
 Tasted by WildeMeeuw on 11/18/2022 & rated 96 points: Kleur: Medium goudgeel. Aroma / bouquet: Vol, expressief en verleidelijk met zowel frisse (appel, peer, brioche) als rijpere (honing, gekookte kool (aangenaam / reductief)/ gebrande nootjes) aromatische kenmerken. Smaak / Afdronk: Mondvullend, dik-sappig. Een enorme retronasale smaakrijkdom. Mooie concentratie, prachtige balans. En wsat een lengte… Harmonie! Algemeen / potentieel: Bijzondere combinatie van fraicheur en rijpheid en een zeldzame combinatie van power en finesse. 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 14 + Smaak / Afdronk: 18 + Algemeen / potentieel: 9 = 96/100

Colour: Medium golden yellow. Aroma / bouquet: Full, expressive and seductive with both fresh (apple, pear, brioche) and riper (honey, boiled cabbage (pleasant / reductive) / roasted nuts) aromatic characteristics. Taste / Aftertaste: Mouth-filling, thick-juicy. An enormous retronasal richness of taste. Beautiful concentration, beautiful balance. And was a length… Harmony! General / potential: Special combination of freshness and maturity and a rare combination of power and finesse. 50 + Color: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 14 + Taste / Aftertaste: 18 + General / potential: 9 = 96/100 (833 views)
 Tasted by WIBA on 7/2/2022 & rated 92 points: Denser. Richer. Honey. Deep much riper. Amazing concentration. But more mature than expected. (805 views)
 Tasted by tinybubbles on 2/17/2021 & rated 95 points: Clean and transparent. Excellent mineral notes to this bottle. (1869 views)
 Tasted by tinybubbles on 8/29/2020 & rated 93 points: A rapidly advancing bottle, that while still enjoyable had lost some of its nuance. 93- (1712 views)
 Tasted by Alex G. on 8/28/2020: Spectacular aroma of honey, no reduction here perfect balance. Super density and length. This is glorious, if a bit different than the style one may expect. (1396 views)
 Tasted by Burgundy Al on 3/6/2020 & rated 97 points: Zachys La Paulee Auction; 3/5/2020-3/6/2020 (Le Bernardin Prive - New York NY): Small glass, brief note. Massive and glorious with so much Of everything and a long, ultra bright finish. Shockingly fresh. (3037 views)
 Tasted by hprphf on 3/6/2020 & rated 95 points: Zachy's La Paulee 2020; 3/5/2020-3/6/2020 (Le Bernardin Prive): 000593. Amazing clarity and sweetness, so big, so structured, still too young. 95+ (1837 views)
 Tasted by Burgundy Al on 8/31/2018 & rated 97 points: Coche-Dury Lunch with a La Tâche Kicker, Then More Après Lunch Wines (Elements Restaurant at the Sanctuary - Paradise Valley, AZ): Enticing floral start with so much baking spice and ripe orchard fruit. Bold and powerful apple and pear flavors come across as so dense from start-to-middle, then softening on finish. At its peak now, this wine is better now vs the 2008 in the prior flight, but without quite the same potential. Perfect harmony. Wonderfully fresh vs almost any 2005 white Burgundy. (3417 views)
 Tasted by fcxj on 5/5/2018 & rated 96 points: Coche Arbor 4. Touch of reduction, balance and intensity. This one has it all. (122) (1690 views)
 Tasted by fcxj on 12/21/2017 & rated 96 points: Masataka. Infanticide, but already impressive with ample, full and rich fruit. Pale straw with modest struck match character. (1859 views)
 Tasted by tinybubbles on 10/20/2017 & rated 96 points: Nicely balanced richness with a high level of definition across the palate. Consumed over 1.5 hours and it was still going strong and improving at the end. (1622 views)
 Tasted by tinybubbles on 10/10/2017 & rated 95 points: Very good bottle. Deep and rich reflecting the vintage and some bottle time, but in this bottle still consistently energetic and focused across the entirety of the palate. I still think this wine is entering or has entered its secondary phase, depending upon the bottle. But after two lower energy bottles, the last two have been more vigourous (1531 views)
 Tasted by bill00 on 5/14/2017 & rated 94 points: Great nose. Pineapple and minerals. Full and round in the mouth. Echoing tinybubbles' previous note, this doesn't quite have the energy or tension you would hope for but it's delicious regardless. (1669 views)
 Tasted by liber on 3/24/2017 & rated 97 points: Chez W, decanted 45 minutes, perfect cork and level - pale, leggy, youthful; complex, fresh bouquet, pears and white peach, light minerality, some chalk; medium, very long, concentrated and persistent, wonderful dimension and energy to fruit, nice acidic lift, young but harmonious, barely ready. VF+ (19). (1497 views)
 Tasted by Philip Yang on 9/2/2016 & rated 90 points: It is good but really could not see what the fuss was all about. (1713 views)
 Tasted by burgcamel on 8/7/2016 & rated 96 points: I did not keep any notes but it's was a real beauty. I only see upside from here! 96+ (1573 views)
 Tasted by Jeff Leve on 7/28/2016 & rated 97 points: Even better than the last time I tasted this stunner. There is an amazing purity of fruit that is only topped by the wines silky, voluptuous textures, density coupled with freshness and mineral qualities. (2444 views)
 Tasted by tinybubbles on 7/28/2016 & rated 94 points: Ripe yellow tropical fruit and background wood on the nose, both of which moderated considerably after 30 minutes of air time. Very full on the palate with a good dose of acid on the finish but lacked both the last degree of depth across the midpalate and last level of precision on the finish of the best versions of this wine. Better after an hour than upon opening. 94-95 (1650 views)
 Tasted by REWindsor on 3/8/2016 & rated 96 points: One of the best wines of the evening. Tremendous depth and minerality. Well blanced and honeyed taste with fresh flowers and citrus. Terrific wine. (1660 views)
 Tasted by sjwshiraz on 7/15/2015: Coche Dury Meursault Perrieres 2005 - at Troisgros- a perfect match for rosettes of sashimi of Saint Pierre topped with Australian black truffle (the first time the restaurant has served these, normally they would not source from so far away but felt the quality to be superlative). All the Coche 2005s that I've had have all been hors classe, but this is possibly better than his Corton Charlemagne. Perhaps best to try side by side to confirm ! My favourite Coche vintage I think. (1802 views)
 Tasted by Jeremy Holmes on 12/10/2013: Initially tight but opened up beautifully in the glass. It was dense, full and rich with sappy orchard fruits trimmed with a light spice. There was a hint of vanilla and it finished with awesome minerally precision and was oh so long. (2652 views)
 Tasted by Jeff Leve on 12/20/2012 & rated 96 points: Big, rich, dense and packed with crushed stone, lemon peel, flowers, orange rind, pear and vanilla notes. Fresh, sweet and spicy, this concentrated, delicious wine ends with layers of ripe citrus, honey suckle and minerality. It's a beauty! (3538 views)
 Tasted by acyso on 6/23/2012 & rated 98 points: HDH auction tasting at Tru; 6/22/2012-6/23/2012 (Chicago, IL): It's not often you find your day completely changed by a glass of wine. This is one of those wines that will do it. Immensely complex but muted nose with some hints of coconut and macadamia. Evokes the BPO playing pianissimo at the ending of the third movement of Beethoven's Fifth -- this is the universe resounding in harmony, ready to explode into fireworks. What can be said about the flavour? It has the richness of Meursault balanced by a piercing arrow of peachy acidity, and a finish that goes on forever. It's somehow both rich and sweet and clean and mineral at the same time. I won't give this a 100 because I can't even begin to imagine what the Corton-Charlemagne would taste. (5043 views)

Burgundy

Les vins de Bourgogne (Bureau interprofessionnel des vins de Bourgogne) (and in English)

Burgundy - The province of eastern France, famous for its red wines produced from Pinot Noir and its whites produced from Chardonnay. (Small of amounts of Gamay and Aligoté are still grown, although these have to be labeled differently.) The most famous part of the region is known as the Cote d'Or (the Golden Slope). It is divided into the Cote de Beaune, south of the town of Beaune (famous principally for its whites), and the Cote de Nuits, North of Beaune (home of the most famous reds). In addition, the Cote Chalonnaise and the Maconnais are important wine growing regions, although historically a clear level (or more) below the Cote d'Or. Also included by some are the regions of Chablis and Auxerrois, farther north.

# 2013 Vintage Notes:
* "2013 is a vintage that 20 years ago would have been a disaster." - Will Lyons
* "low yields and highly variable reds, much better whites." - Bill Nanson
* "Virtually all wines were chaptalised, with a bit of sugar added before fermentation to increase the final alcohol level." - Jancis Robinson

# 2014 Vintage Notes:
"We have not had such splendid harvest weather for many years. This will ensure high quality (fragrant, classy and succulent are words already being used) across the board, up and down the hierarchy and well as consistently from south to north geographically apart from those vineyards ravaged by the hail at the end of June." - Clive Coates

# 2015 Vintage Notes:
"Low yields and warm weather allowed for ample ripeness, small berries and an early harvest. Quality is looking extremely fine, with some people whispering comparisons with the outstanding 2005 vintage. Acid levels in individual wines may be crucial." - Jancis Robinson

# 2017 Vintage Notes:
"Chablis suffered greatly from frost in 2017, resulting in very reduced volumes. As ever, the irony seems to be that what remains is very good quality, as it is in the Côte d’Or. Cooler nights across the region have resulted in higher-than-usual acidity, with good conditions throughout the harvest season allowing for ripe, healthy fruit." - Jancis Robinson

# 2018 Vintage Notes:
"The most successful region for red Burgundy in 2018 was the Côte de Beaune. The weather was ideal in this area, with just enough sunlight and rain to produce perfectly balanced wines naturally." - Vinfolio
