Tasting Notes and Scores

93.5 ST

Very closed nose hints at wet stone. Rich and ripe in the mouth, with palate-saturating flavors of crushed stone and orange. As lush and sweet as this is, it avoids crossing over to exotic. Very deep and very young: should age very well for a 2006.

Full bottle 1,346 g. At the 2016 vertical of Coche Rougeots, Jean-François said 2006 had the same weather and style of maturity as 1986, and said then that 2006 was 'the vintage to drink now in both reds and whites'. Very tight, taut, high-acid nose and then lots more breadth and fruit on the palate than usual for a Coche-Dury wine. Lime and evolution and almost generosity on the finish! This is definitely mature. The next day this really rounded out and was amazingly long. (JR)
