The 2021 Meursault 1er Cru Perrières is reminiscent of Coche's brilliant 2016. Unwinding in the glass with notes of citrus oil, crisp white peach and pear mingled with hazelnuts, freshly baked bread, vanilla pod and iodine, it's medium to full-bodied, chiseled and tensile, with a tightly wound core of fruit, racy acids and a long, pungently saline finish.

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
The Cote de Beaune's largest white-wine village, known for rich, nutty, buttery Chardonnay of generous texture.
2021 in Burgundy was shaped by severe April frost, mildew and a cool, wet season that slashed yields; the surviving wines are fresh, elegant and classically styled, with lower alcohol and a welcome return to restraint.
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.
