Robert Parker (92)

Scents of honeysuckle, lily-of-the-valley; grapefruit and lemon rinds; and deeply toasted nuts and seeds, rise from the glass of Coche’s 2007 Meursault Genevrieres. Irresistibly vivacious and juicy this at the same time projects a formidable sense of underlying density and chalky mineral character. The finish here, too, is not the least bit reticent in its burst of bright, diverse citrus. I see no need to wait to enjoy it, although I imagine it will continue to pay dividends for a decade. Jean-Francois Coche finished his 2007 Chardonnay harvest by mid-September, and of his whites were bottled in April. He characterizes the fruit as having been healthy, relatively high in malic acid, and easy to vinify, with alcohol levels (after very light but at this address routine chaptalization) between 12.5% and 13%. Coche is among many growers to not only draw the comparison with 2004, but to claim that this represents the only possible point of reference that even occurs to him. That said, he considers the 2007s slightly fruitier and more forward.
