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.

Golden colored with tropical fruit. No oxidation at all but comes off as more fully mature than prior bottles. Quite enjoyable but there are better bottles of this.

La Paulée Chevalier Fête (Saison - San Francisco CA): Great spice aromas that seem as much like a Volnay as Meursault, with very ripe apple. Extreme power on palate with ripe apple and pear and great viscous power and textures. There is so much here to enjoy thinking about, even if it will require another 5+ years to realize its full potential. The 2004 in the next glass might be better today, but this will clearly be the better wine in its peak.

Restaurant Fitzgerald (Rotterdam , NL): Tight, young, mineral, citrus nose. On the palate racy, stony, citrus with amazing tension and strong underlying acidity, while severe now it has great potential.

Leiden visits Fitzgerald Restaurant in Rotterdam for 50 year Anniversary: Decanted for several hours. Mineral, smokey nose, white fruit, very pure and precise. Taste text-book Perrieres with stoney minerals, some exotic fruit, concentration with tension and balance, bright acidic backbone, continuing in a long linear finish. Probably the palate will open more if the wine is kept longer in cellar (this is a 2010 wine), however this already a feast to drink now. Really enjoyed this wine, I always love the precision in Meursault Perrieres. Truly wonderfull Perrieres from Coche.

Winos' excellent adventure in France; 6/22/2017-6/27/2017 (All over France): The bottle from last November was flirting with perfection. Pop and pour, there is a hint of TCA. The sommelier is not quite sure. He thinks it may be very reductive. He leaves us for a few minutes and when he comes back, asks us to go outside. He thinks that the TCA note is not there. All of us agree that it is almost none existent. Nevertheless, the fruit is very shy and there is a hint of impure note. It is definitely slightly off and never really recovers. Not a good wine night.

2016 Villa d’Este Wine Symposium - Kelly, Alan and Kevin's excellent adventure; 11/3/2016-11/12/2016 (Villa D’este, Lake Como, Piedmont, Milan and Frankfurt): Explosive nose displaying perfectly ripe white orchard fruit, pear, white peach, apple, also a hint of pineapple, lemon oil, Coche flint, sesame, wet stone, sweet spices, smoke, vanilla and mineral. Incredible concentration yet perfectly pure and precise, bright acidity, strong presence of mineral and a very long finish that resonates. It is so intense yet not overwhelming. Sort of wine to imbibe all day and night without losing interest as the wine is constantly evolving. It flirts with perfection.

The combination of a great white Burgundy vintage and Mersault's greatest wine is unsurprisingly a winner, and the 2010 Coche Dury Perrières lives up to one's lofty expectations. The wine is still very young, and really needs an hour in the decanter to pop and open up a bit for inspection, but the quality is unmistakable: subtly-handled reductivity blows off to reveal an intense and primary bouquet of lemon oil, lime zest, pain grillé and a lovely framing of vanilla oak. On the palate the wine is bottomless, overwhelming the senses with its incredible intensity, minerality and length—and needless to say, there is no trace of corpulence, as the balance is impeccable. What a wine!

A knock out Grand Cru level vine. Nose is just amazing, intense, huge, complex and deep. The pure essence of Chardonnay and Meursault. Gunpowder, deep stony minerals, ripe intense citrus fruit, lilacs and wet stones mixed up with sea breeze. Amazing, young and kaleidoscopic. Palate is very young, with razor sharp acidity, amazing cut and bottomless depth in the pure expressive fruit. Layers up on layers just keep evolving in the glass as its getting warmer and opens up. Finish is endless, I can still taste it, almost a month after I had a sip. One of the absolutely most amazing and untamed young white Bourgogne wines I have ever tasted. By far the finest Meursault. Playing in its own league, way over all other wines from the commune I have had. Perfection! Give it some more time, and even greater things will happen! (96 – 99)

Massive massive wine. Dense nose of matchstick, citrus, touch of toasted oak and wet stone. Thick and rich on the palate. Actually almost painful, but still this has finesse. Coche is in a class by itself. Extremely long and lingering finish.

HDH Auction Notes (Tru - Chicago, IL): Oh boy. Talk about raw power. I'm a sucker for Coche; its power, smokey edges, and kaleidoscopic fruit just bowl me over. Had the 2011 Perrières back in February and this had the same power, but just more elegance. Limes, lemons, and flint. It's a simple equation, but Coche seems to knock it out of the park.

HDH Burgundy Auction (Chicago, IL): Very pale in colour. A moderately sulphured nose with a lot of juicy tropical fruit and a huge hit of popcorn, both on the palate and nose. Very intense and concentrated, with some pears and peaches and a powerful vein of citrus-inflected acidity.

Through the Heart of France; 11/17/2013-11/25/2013 (Centre, Aubrac, Languedoc and Paris): Light yellow. Fantastic nose-orange blossom, lees, and a hint of cinnamon or clove. Mouthcoating texture with some wood barely showing, covered up by the sheer density of extract. Saved from any sense of heaviness by fabulous acidity. Monumental wine, Grand Cru quality in every respect but especially unbelievable for its endless finish and aftertaste. Great now, probably even greater in 10 years.

Fine Wine Experience #9 Domaine Coche-Dury 2010 (Wijnhandel Peeters Rotterdam): A little closed but already a beautiful perfume. Hard to describe this wine. Just buy some bottles to find out yourself :-) Nice sharpness, body, fruit, aok, length and depth, everything is in this wine but had to come together. Fenomenal finish! What a stunning wine this is...
