This was showing perfectly... So precise and mineral at first but opened up with air. lemon and hints of pineapple for me. with time the pineapple and white fruits show more. Classic coche nose of matchstick becomes pronounced. very good length.93/94 one of the wine of the night

This bottle showed less punch than this wine had a year ago. But a rewarding albeit rewarding and clean front palate. Finish was beginning to fade and showing signs of beginning to pull apart after 30 minutes of air time.

Chardonnay and Italians: Blind - picked it as a Coche village lieu-dit. Gunsmoke, flint, lemon, orange and straw aromas. Has some ripeness to it, but really lovely flavour purity. Really shows off good depth and length. Well integrated acidity provides control. Delicious stuff.

Lost Thursday Wine Lunch - Blacksalt (Blacksalt, Washington DC): Pop and pour, very lean white fruits and mineral and saline dominate. With air, cool white fruits, pear, white peach, apple, ginger, smoke, saline and strong presence of Coche’s signature sesame and matchstick. Very good concentration, cool and suave white fruit driven palate impression, noticeable saltiness, mineral, bright acidity and lovely cool clean finish. With air, very Coche, ripe yet cool white fruits, matchstick, saline and wet stone. Very young but still really enjoyable and impressive. I recommend another five years of cellaring.
