Winemaker Notes
The 2019 Domaine Coquard Loison-Fleurot Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru is a superb, high-toned expression that masterfully balances "luxury in the best sense" with a powerful, saline-inflected structure. According to Neal Martin of Vinous, the wine features an enticing and well-defined bouquet of mulberry and pressed iris flower, with subtle traces of sea spray in the background. Winemaker Thomas Colladot matured this cuvée with 25% whole bunches, resulting in a medium-bodied palate that exhibits grippy tannins and a distinctive iodine-laced bitter cherry finish.
