2022 Domaine Coche-Dury Bourgogne Blanc, Burgundy, France
ABOUT THE WINE
The 2022 CocheâDury Bourgogne Blanc is crafted from Chardonnay vines planted across select village and regional sites, bringing together fruit that reflects the cool, chalky limestone and clay soils characteristic of Burgundy. In the glass, it reveals fresh citrus and orchard fruitâlemon zest, green apple, and ripe pearâlayered with nuances of white flowers, crushed stone, and a subtle, textural creaminess. The 2022 vintage, marked by a balance of warmth and freshness, yields a wine that is approachable in youth yet built with thoughtful structure and lively acidity. In the cellar, careful wholeâcluster pressing and gentle, lowâintervention winemakingâoften with aging in seasoned oakâpreserve vibrancy and emphasize varietal purity over overt oak influence. This Bourgogne Blanc is versatile at the table: pair with fresh seafood, goat cheese, lemonâherb chicken, or simply enjoy on its own as an elegant aperitif.
ABOUT THE PRODUCER
Domaine CocheâDury, based in Meursault, Burgundy, France, is widely regarded as one of the greatest producers of Chardonnay in the world. A familyârun estate with deep roots in the CĂŽte de Beaune, CocheâDury combines meticulous vineyard management (including low yields and attentive farming) with a philosophy that celebrates terroir and natural expression. Across its rangeâfrom village wines like the Bourgogne Blanc to grand appellationsâwinemaking emphasizes gentle handling, spontaneous fermentations, and thoughtful use of oak to enhance complexity without overshadowing fruit purity. This approach consistently yields wines of remarkable balance, textural finesse, and longâterm aging potential. The 2022 Bourgogne Blanc, while more accessible than the domaineâs top cuvĂ©es, carries this same commitment to quality, making it a delightful ambassador of the houseâs style.
