  Gorgeous nose with very nuanced and elegant flavors of lemon, fruit, minerals, and just a hint of flint. Nothing is immediately jumping out, but the flavors are deep and complex. High acidity on the palate with lemon and saline notes, green apple, crushed rocks, and tart white peach. Long finish. What a fantastic wine. This is still young and shows very little signs of age. It doesn't quite have the power of the 2012 I tasted recently, but it makes up with finesse.

  Significant but not fatal oxidation.

  Medium gold color was a little concerning given the previous notes. However, one taste reassured that this was typical Coche and that it was not oxidized. Typical Coche nose and flint with a very rich and buttery mouthfeel. Fruit is ripe and the finish is persistent. I’m not one to time finishes but basically I could taste it the entire drive home. Hauntingly good. Very few wines better than 96 Coche.

  Lots of butter, almost a lobstery seafood/brine note, slightly oxidative. Not quite my cup of tea, but still lots of weight and energy if you do like a very mature style of white burgundy.
