About the Winery:
The Domaine was established in the 1920s by Leon Coche. Some vineyard plots with established grapevines were purchased and Leon bottled some wine himself. The vineyard land was passed down to Leon's three children, with Georges Coche taking control of his share in 1964 and continuing to run the estate and purchase new vineyard land. Jean-Francois Coche took over from his father Georges, on his fathers retirement in 1973. Jean-Francois's wife has the surname Dury which was added to the name of the estate.
Jean-Francois Coche officially retired in 2010 but there will clearly be continuity of style in the hands of his son Raphael who has been working alongside his father since 2003. There have been some changes already in the detail: the vineyards are now all ploughed, and a pneumatic press has been ordered to work alongside the old mechanical Vaslin.
The wines are firmly crushed before pressing, which must surely be a factor in the Coche-Dury style, then fermented and matured in barrels using a relatively low percentage of new wood, not exceeding 25% except for the very top wines.

Ratings & Reviews
90 Points - Wine Advocate:
"Aromas of sweet red cherries, raspberries and spices introduce the 2022 Meursault Rouge, a medium-bodied, satiny and lively red with a pretty core of fruit and good persistence on the finish." - William Kelley (Jan 2025)
Vinous Media:
"The 2022 Bourgogne Rouge has a bright, perky bouquet with touches of red cherry and blueberry. The palate is well balanced, quite tensile and lively with ample depth and a more peppery finish than many of its peers. You could knock this back now if you want (why not?), but it will age for four or five years." - Neal Martin (Jan 2025)
