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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: initial;\"\u003eJean-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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: initial;\"\u003eThe 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: initial;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eRatings \u0026amp; Reviews\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e94 Points - Wine Advocate:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\"More muscular than the Enseignères, the 2021 Meursault Les Rougeots unwinds in the glass with aromas of pear, white flowers, pastry cream, bread dough, nutmeg and hazelnuts. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with a deep core of fruit framed by chalky extract and girdled by racy acids, it concludes with a long, saline finish.\" - William Kelley (Jan 2024)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e92 Points - Vinous Media:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\"The 2021 Meursault Rougeots takes time to unfurl in the glass, but it's worth waiting: apple blossom, chai, and hints of beeswax emerge with time. Very fine delineation. The palate is very well-balanced with a keen thread of acidity. The mid-palate has good substance and grip, quite pithy towards the finish, with just a hint of spice on the aftertaste. Give this 4-5 years in bottle to see it at full flight.\" - Neal Martin (Jan 2024)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"KERMIT LYNCH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45473586217119,"sku":null,"price":1578.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0481\/8940\/7391\/files\/CocheRougeots.jpg?v=1716668317","url":"https:\/\/artisan.wine\/products\/domaine-coche-dury-les-rougeots-meursault-2021-burgundy-france","provider":"Artisan W\u0026S","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
