Decanter, October 2021

This delivers a lush, ripe, almost tropical aroma with a pronounced edge of butter, fresh cream, and spice. The wine has a hint of reduction and smoke and a firm, dense texture that is muscular and long on the finish...

The 2019 Domaine Coche-Dury Meursault Caillerets is a Chardonnay from the renowned Burgundy region of France, specifically the Cote de Beaune sub-region. This premier cru wine comes from the small Les Caillerets vineyard, where Domaine Coche-Dury owns a modest 0.18 hectares that were once dedicated to Pinot Noir.

Decanter awarded this wine an impressive score of 96, praising its "lush, ripe, almost tropical aroma" complemented by notes of butter, fresh cream, and spice. The review highlights its "firm, dense texture" and describes the wine as "muscular and long on the finish," suggesting that it shows remarkable resilience and complexity despite the hot conditions of 2019. The wine's ability to age well is also noted, making it a standout choice for collectors.

Vinous, meanwhile, scored the wine at 94, noting its exposure to heat which has influenced its profile. Reviewer Neal Martin describes a "slightly more honeyed bouquet" and a palate that is "very well balanced with more honeyed texture." The wine exhibits subtle hints of caramel, quince, and marmalade, resulting in a finish that is "reassuringly complex and yet completely delicious."

The 2019 Domaine Coche-Dury Meursault Caillerets offers a unique expression of Chardonnay that reflects its specific terroir and the vintage's climatic challenges. Both reviews agree on the wine's excellence, with Decanter's review particularly highlighting its aging potential and complexity. For enthusiasts of white Burgundy, this wine presents an intriguing and rewarding option.
