Domaine Coche-Dury Meursault Premier Cru Les Perrieres 2016 AOC 0.75l

Domaine Coche-Dury Meursault Premier Cru Les Perrieres 2016 AOC 0.75l is a wine that presents itself as an exercise in balance between light and minerality, the fruit of a soil that seems to breathe beneath the surface of clay and ferruginous stone. In this context, the 0.75l bottle embodies meticulous management of the Perrières parcels, where human intervention combines with climatic conditions to offer a complex aromatic texture and a tension that promises longevity. The producer, Domaine Coche-Dury, is a leading family-run winery in the Côte de Beaune, cultivated using a discreet yet intense method: an approach that prioritizes grape quality, parsimony in the cellar, and aging that allows the raw material to emerge without forcing. The story behind this label is that of a winery that has made terroir its hallmark: selected vineyards, manual harvesting, and an ability to listen to the climate that allows for the preservation of elegance and purity. The production philosophy translates into a very light touch in fermentation and aging, with a period in oak that doesn't dull but rather shapes the texture, allowing the delicacy of ripe yellow fruit to emerge, intertwined with nutty notes and a touch of minerality reminiscent of wet stone. Distinctive and almost intimate, Les Perrières is distinguished by a controlled density and a pronounced flavor, capable of projecting the wine onto levels that go beyond the immediacy of the taste: it is an element that invites slow tasting, exploring nuances of butter, candied citrus, almond, and a chalky dust that colors the entry on the palate. Within the Domaine Coche-Dury portfolio, this wine occupies a prominent position for those seeking pure expressions of the Meursault Premier Cru terroir, capable of accompanying simple dishes or responding with the complexity of a sophisticated evening. In keeping with STELT's positioning, its aim is to offer discreet authority and measured longevity, without ostentation but with a coherence that stands the test of time and gustatory memory.
