The 2017 vintage in Burgundy was generally very good, with ample sunshine and meticulous vineyard management, leading to optimal conditions for grape flourishing. Coche-Dury's Meursault Genevrieres 1er Cru 2017 is a highly regarded wine, with some experts rating it as extraordinary. It is known for its elegance and minerality, often compared to Les Perrières. The wine offers a complex bouquet of chamomile, sage, peanut skin, nashi pear, lemon rind, and orange peel. On the palate, it displays power and concentration, with a superb balance between tension and purity of fruit, though some note it can be a bit restrained and shy in its youth, needing time to flesh out. Other descriptions include ripe peach, yellow citrus, light honey, and white almond-nougat notes, with a smoothly succulent feel. It can also show a Coche signature of grilled pineapple, with a broad, rich, lightly reductive character, sweet popcorn, and classic terroir fatness. 【Exceptional balance of tension and fruit purity】. This wine is an excellent choice for a significant celebration or a serious wine tasting, showcasing the potential of a top Meursault. It has great aging potential and will continue to develop with time. 🍴 Food pairing suggestions include chicken in cream sauce, skate in brown butter, white truffle risotto, and Epoisses cheese. 🥂 Event suggestions: A gourmet dinner, a special anniversary, or a vertical tasting of Coche-Dury wines.
