Domaine Fabien Coche Bourgogne Côte-d'Or Pinot Noir 2023

From 2 parcels aged 30 to 60 years old located in Meursault and Pommard this wine is 100% destemmed with no pigeage (plunging of the cap) or remontage used in the vinification. Aged in larger 300 litre barrels and is bottled before the harvest in August so as not to impart any overt oak influence and capture all the vibrantly fresh fruit. The resulting wine is vibrant lifted and very pretty yet also quite substantial for just a basic Bourgogne level. Fabiens vinification for this wine is all about capturing finesse fragrance and purity and he has succeeded brilliantly. Pale blackcurrant. Pine needle, herb, box hedge fruit. Cap just kept wet. Replicated on palate, med bodied & fresh. Good
