"One of the standout wines of this huge Coche-Dury tasting, the 2005 Meursault Caillerets delivers - and more. The nose is blessed with a quite astonishing sense of penetration, its minerality grabbing you (politely) by the lapels and demanding attention. It seems regal and sophisticated, momentarily transferring you down to the Côte de Beaune. The palate is focused and animated with a killer line of acidity and just a dash of white pepper toward the saline finish that just begs you to take another precious sip. This is one fabulous Meursault from Coche’s top drawer."

The Cote de Beaune's largest white-wine village, known for rich, nutty, buttery Chardonnay of generous texture.
2005 in Burgundy is a legendary vintage from a near-ideal, dry growing season; both reds and whites are concentrated, structured and superbly balanced, with dense tannins and exceptional long-term aging potential.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
