Note di degustazione
Jean-François Coche produced what are arguably the white Burgundies of the vintage in 2005, but the bottles that I've encountered in the last eight months have seemed to be going through an awkward phase. Is this a vintage that peaked early, or are the wines in a teenage phase between adolescence and maturity? Time will tell, but given Coche's track record, I'm inclined to bet on the latter. This bottle of the 2005 Meursault Village was certainly attractive, however, revealing notes of crisp yellow orchard fruit, Meyer lemon, subtle drawn butter and hazelnut. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, succulent and pure, with good depth and concentration. It's just missing the extra dimension I found in this wine as recently as early last year.

Pale greenish gold. Evolved but certainly too-mature nose. Smoky and refined. Deep-flavoured. Very clean and fresh. Sleek texture. Soaring – none of the earthbound stodginess of so many white burgundies. (JR)
Cork broke and served in carafe. Double knot on a string. Mid gold with a green streak. For a Coche wine this is unusually open and just very slightly flat. Absolutely borderline premox – just a hint. Not the purest example of a typical Coche. Bone-dry finish. (JR)
