Chardonnay · Cote de Beaune
100 points from Antonio Galloni.
“This is my fifth bottle of 2005 Corton-Charlemagne Grand Cru from Coche-Dury, one of the greatest whites that the Domaine has ever made. It has hardly moved since I last tasted it: stunning aromatics that are so flinty, so mineral-driven, so penetrating that it almost hurts. Don't worry...you get used to it. Hints of crustacea and blood orange emerge with aeration. You can hardly believe it is 20 years old. The palate is cut from a similar cloth, with such incredible energy and tension that it could power a small city. Maybe this bottle does not have the peacock's tail of others, yet it is a formidable, life-affirming, almost ineffable wine that is utterly awe-inspiring. Tasted at Jordi's 50th birthday at "Nando's."”
“2005 Domaine Coche-Dury Corton Charlemagne Burgundy - 98 pts! Warning: this incredible white Burgundy can leave you speechless. Appraised blind, everyone fortunate enough to have a glass of this Corton-Charlemagne in front of them, recognized its greatness. The bouquet is imbued with spine-tingling mineralite and a shimmering tension that is impossible to encapsulate in words. It just leaves you with a huge smile on your face. The palate neatly interlocks with the aromatics, that mineral tension just leaving you breathless with admiration. This is not a case of a kaleidoscope of flavors queuing to have their say, rather a masterclass in precision, nuance, texture and bewitching harmony. This is spellbinding in every way and if you have a bottle in your cellar, then God must have smiled upon you. RP”
