Vinous (96)Two vintages of Coche Dury’s Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru follow. Neither 2011 nor 2003 is especially highly regarded, but it is precisely vintages like these that can be so instructive because they tell us so much about what talented growers can achieve in challenging years. The 2011 Charlemagne needs several hours of air to open, which is not surprising, as it has always been a stubborn wine. I remember that Jean-François Coche hesitated to show the Charlemagne when I stopped by to taste the bottled 2011s, as he felt the long malos had resulted in a wine that needs more time in bottle to fully come together. Now, at nearly age ten, the 2011 remains quite vibrant and nervy, with striking citrus, floral and mineral notes laced into a racy frame. All it needs is a bit more flesh, but it’s the sort of flesh that develops with more time in bottle. |

Wine Advocate (97+)Raphel Coche told me that the 2012 Corton Charlemagne was the only vineyard that escaped hail damage this year. It has a very succinct nose, not predisposed to go out and grab you by the lapels. The aromatics unfurl with a sense of ease prioritizing finesse over power: beeswax, linden, lemon thyme and fresh pear. The palate is exquisitely balanced with fleeting glimpses of Seville orange and apricot. But there is more about the tension, the effortlessness and that it just rolls out across the finish like a huge Turkish rug. This is the kind of wine that exhausts superlatives. |

Vinous (97+)(13.7% alcohol): Pale yellow. Profound aromas of lemon, lime and crushed rock. Ineffably silky on entry, then tightly coiled and pungently mineral in the middle palate, conveying an impression of great density without weight. No sign of hot-vintage character here! The endless crushed-rock finish conveys a powerful sense of solidity and the structure of a red wine. Raphael Coche likes this best among his 2015s for its balance but will probably hold it back for a much later release. He noted that the family's 2010 Corton-Charlemagne will be released in September, adding that the 2015 version is totally different in style but close in quality. |

Wine Advocate (93)The 2016 Meursault 1er Cru Les Caillerets is excellent, unfurling in the glass with notes of lemon oil, sesame, dried white flowers and a subtle hint of orange blossom, subtly framed by new wood. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, racy and mineral, with tangy acids and an unmistakably chalky, saline finish. As is often the case, it's the brightest, most overtly stony wine in the Coche-Dury cellar. |

Wine Advocate (97)Deep and complete, Coche's 2020 Meursault 1er Cru Les Genevrières unwinds in the glass with aromas of crisp Anjou pear, orange oil, honeysuckle, freshly baked bread, nutmeg, toasted sesame and iodine. Medium to full-bodied, its satiny attack segues into an ample, fleshy mid-palate that's girdled by racy acids and chalky structuring extract, concluding with a long, saline finish. Uniting texture and tension to compelling effect, this contemporary classic is the quintessential Genevrières. |

Vinous (94+)Pale, bright lemon-yellow. Flamboyant orange zest and stone aromas come across as a bit more exotic than those of the Genevrières. On the palate, the wine's creamy soft citrus fruit is energized by powerful sappy minerality. There's great stuffing here but this very long, palate-staining wine will need time in bottle. |

Decanter (97)This extraordinary wine has barely evolved since its release. It still shows a very light lemon-yellow colour and youthful notes of lemon, green apple, acacia flowers, mineral and oak spice, all still enveloped in a smoky reductive shimmer. The texture is robust, with bright acidity, intense concentration and superb length. The grapes come from the two Coche parcels in Perrières-Dessus. Only just barely beginning its evolution and will probably last another 30-40 years. |

Vinous (92)(from Les Chaumes des Perrieres) Bright, pale yellow. Tangy aromas of orange, peach and spices. Broad and lively, with intense fruit lifted by a near-perfect sugar/acid balance. Finishes with excellent cut. This is awfully good for a wine from seven-year-old vines. |

Vinous (91)(Narvaux; Coche bottles a few different cuvees of Meursault villages, normally noting the lieu-dit only on the back label; this wine was bought by the U.S. importer) Peach and white flowers on the nose; a real essence of Meursault perfume. Then creamy-rich and sweet, with soft citrus flavors dominating. Finishes with lovely lingering sweetness of fruit. Ridiculously sexy village wine. |

Vinous (92)(from Vireuils-Dessous): Aromas of orange oil and wet stone. Juicy on entry, then rather strict in the middle, showing noteworthy power and tension, not to mention terrific precision of stone fruit and citrus flavors. Not yet expansive; in fact, this village wine is the closest 2010 to austere today. Owing to the low volume of grapes in 2010, Coche-Dury used 15% new oak here, vs. a normal 10%. (If you see the 2010 Bourgogne Blanc, but it: with its leesy, spicy pineapple and orange blossom flavors, its rather powerful mid-palate and its whiplash of a finish, it's better than many Meursault botlings.) |
