Vintage Character The 2015 vintage in Burgundy was widely celebrated for its hot, dry summer, which produced ripe, concentrated fruit and wines of notable power and depth.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing Awarded an impressive 94 points by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, Coche-Dury Meursault 'Les Rougeots' expresses the exceptional character of this village-level lieu-dit, crafted entirely from Chardonnay. In the glass, it reveals vibrant aromas of roasted hazelnut, white peach, Meyer lemon, and freshly baked brioche, complemented by the domaine’s hallmark reductive, flinty minerality. The palate is both rich and precisely defined, offering layers of citrus zest, toasted almond, and a subtle saline nuance, all carried by a creamy yet taut texture. The finish is long and resonant, marked by lively acidity and mineral tension. This distinguished Meursault is a superb match for lobster thermidor, roasted poultry with morel mushrooms, or a well-aged Comté cheese, allowing its complexity and finesse to shine alongside refined cuisine.
