A very nice puligny, but I must confess I was expecting a little more and was therefore slightly disapointed. I am not familiar with Coche's Puligny, and on this occasion I hesitated with a 2012 Rougeots that was identically priced on the wine-list. Should have gone for the Rougeot I think. This is very nicely balanced, has great purity and freshness, but I did not get the wow effect I had on almost every occasion tasting a Coche white wine. It simply lacks depth and complexity, while making a most decent Puligny villages ultimately.
Good but not great (for the Coche standards that is).

Big and weighty, became more precise and linear with air. Signature Coche ripe fruit, acidity and reduction - I thought this was fantastic! I'd definitely recommend giving this a little air if you're drinking it today.

Decanted and drank over 3 hours. Buttery nose with lemon oil and mint. As it warms, the steely backbone of the wine comes through. Medium-bodied, what was most remarkable was the silkiness of the texture that glides and coats the palate. There is such purity and concentration here but this to me is not a showy or intense wine. Alcohol was imperceptible. Medium long finish. Somm insisted it was too young but we felt it was performing well today.

Pompette Salon 酌樂 Series X: Opened 2h before serving. Some Coche flint, very precise. Intense mouthfeel with lemon and orchard. Everything is in the right place. I find this cuvee has more minerality than his Meursault village.

Dinner at Bistro de L Hotel. Already so impressive and fun to drink. Big full throttle nose of toasty orchard fruit with citrus notes throughout. Good mineral flavors add depth. Rich, but effortlessly juicy and balanced. Very easy to drink and enjoy.

Winos' excellent adventure in France; 6/22/2017-6/27/2017 (All over France): Expressive nose displaying ripe yellow fruit, pineapple, lemon curd, a hint of granny smith, saline, Coche flint, sesame and wet stone. Excellent concentration, dense and oily without being heavy, perfect amount of acidity and mineral and a long decadent yellow fruit driven finish. Although the fruit is opulent, it remains very precise and energetic. This clearly shows riper yellow fruit than the 15 Meursualt Caillerets served next. Drinking beautifully already!

More citrus than matchstick aromatically. Round, generous palate.

La Fête du Champagne Gala (Pier Sixty, Chelsea Piers - New York NY): Small gala glass. Ripe apple and pear with faintly tropical hints, very good depth, just less complex textures than typical for this Coche-Dury cuvee.
