Domaine Fabien Coche: Auxey-Duresses 1er Cru Les Ecusseaux 2020
Burgundy - Auxey-Duresses - Red Wine -In this 2020 vintage, the red Auxey Duresses 1er Cru Les Ecusseaux from Domaine Fabien Coche is a superb wine produced in the Côte de Beaune, on a very small parcel of 0.6 hectares, a very nice 1er Cru at a small price, on the fruit, with freshness and complexity
The robe: bright ruby red
The nose: small fresh red and black fruits (blackberry, blueberry, raspberry), floral notes which after aeration opens on more animal notes
The palate: full-bodied, greedy, with complexity, good balance, supple and velvety tannins and a long spicy finish
Located in Meursault, this family estate has 12 hectares of vines spread over Meursault, Pommard, Auxey-Duresses, Monthélie, Saint-Romain, Saint-Aubin and Pulingny-Montrachet. Created in 1940 and formerly under the name Coche-Bizouard, the Domaine Fabien Coche cultivates all the nobility of the great wines of Burgundy. This is why he works all his wines with the same care, from the smallest to the most prestigious. This is why Auxey Duresses 1er Cru Les Ecusseaux red 2020 is a real success, combining fruit, finesse and purity.
The estate uses traditional methods for the production of its wines: vineyard work, maturing, bottling... each step is done in order to guarantee an exceptional production. Preserving the nature of the soils is one of the main concerns of this winemaker who has been working in organic farming for several years. It is therefore quite natural that the request for organic certification was made in 2020.
In the whole of Burgundy, the 2020 vintage was quite hot and early but gave birth to airy wines with great ageing potential. The winemakers are unanimous on the quality of the 2020 vintage, the grapes are bursting with sunshine with a complete ripening cycle allowing to preserve the balance so prized in Burgundy. The harvest was inaugurated by the Pinot Noir where the first juices reveal all the freshness and maturity of the grape.
The advice of 12Bouteilles: A perfect wine with a plate of cold meats, a game or a nice piece of beef. A wine which deserves to wait a little more, sublime in the next 3 to 5 years if you like Pinots in their youth. To be served around 15-16°C
