Note di degustazione
The 2016 Meursault Rouge was supplemented by some purchased grapes this year, but Raphaël Coche's deft hand with Pinot Noir is clearly in evidence. Offering up aromas of raspberries, cherries and violets, it's medium-bodied, succulent and fleshy, with some chalky tannins that assert themselves on the finish. It's a decidedly over-performing Meursault Rouge.

(from Narvaux, which was not affected by frost and yielded close to 48 hectoliters per hectare): Pale, bright yellow. Aromas of lemon, lime and stone. Firm on the attack, then sharply chiseled but not at all hard in the middle palate, with lovely fruit intensity and classic Meursault citricity. Tightly coiled yet somehow pliant, this village wine shows terrific citrus lift and cut. Finishes pure, fresh and long. Raphaël Coche told me that this wine, along with his Meursault Perrières and Corton-Charlemagne, "are what 2016 could have been."
