🏰 The 2019 Coquard Loison Fleurot Clos de la Roche Grand Cru is from a 【hidden-gem Burgundian estate with a stellar collection of Grand Cru holdings】, whose wines are increasingly recognized as a rising star. Under winemaker Thomas Colladot, the estate focuses on light extraction and delicate new oak use, resulting in elegant wines that express fruit purity. The 2019 vintage, a Pinot Noir from Morey-Saint-Denis, features a delineated bouquet with seamlessly integrated whole bunch fermentation. Expect aromas of blackberry, briar, dark chocolate, various dark berries, earth, dried flowers, and a hint of oak. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-boned tannins, excellent focus, and a strict, linear finish, offering rich, plush flavors, subtle minerality, and a fine salty aftertaste.
🍴 This exquisite Grand Cru Pinot Noir is a perfect match for classic Burgundy pairings. Consider roasted duck, goose, or other game birds. It would also complement mushroom-based dishes, truffle pasta, or a fine coq au vin.
🥂 This wine is built for the long haul, requiring cellaring for several years to fully develop, with a suggested drinking window from 2025-2045 or starting 2036. It's a serious Grand Cru for collectors and special occasions, promising immense potential and a rewarding experience with age.
