This is very Meursault in style with plenty of roasted hazelnut character adding breadth to the pretty and well-layered combination of freshly sliced citrus, apricot, nectarine and white peach aromas. The palate impression is one where the richness of the mid-palate buffers well the firm acid spine that shapes both the medium-bodied flavors and finish. This terrific effort is still quite young but it may very well be the best of the Coche villages wines in 2012. Note: Coche noted that this was 80% destroyed by hail in 2012 Drink: 2019+
The 2013 Meursault Les Rougeots has a very pure bouquet with subtle scents of tangerine, lemon curd, limestone and yellow flowers. The palate is spicy, racy on the entry with plenty of spice racing around the finish. This is a feisty Rougeots cut from the same cloth as the Genevrières ’12, with plenty of depth and concentration.
