Coche-Dury Monthelie Cote de Beaune Rouge 2022

Domaine Coche-Dury Monthelie Cote de Beaune Rouge 2022

Imported by Kermit Lynch

Domaine Coche-Dury’s tiny 0.25-hectare parcel in Monthélie yields a Pinot Noir that balances Côte de Beaune finesse with the house’s trademark drive. The 2022 vintage offers pure red-berry fruit, subtle earth, and a tactile limestone edge, all framed by a patient 15 to 22 month élevage in barrel. Bottled unfiltered, it shows the clarity and precision collectors expect from Raphaël Coche’s cellar while remaining accessible enough to enjoy in its youth.
