In 1992, Coche's yields were higher than he would have liked. For the first time Coche will be offering some of his Meursaults with their vineyard name, rather than blending them together into a village Meursault. There are five separate single vineyard Meursault cuvees. The 1992 Meursault-Les Rougeot is forceful, dramatic, flamboyant wines loaded with honeyed, hazelnut-scented fruit, full body, unctuously thick, rich textures, low acidity, and plenty of power, alcohol, glycerin, and fruit. Rougeot is more expansive and longer than Les Chevalieres.
A big wine, chewy yet polished, providing tons of butter, butterscotch, mineral, honey and chalk flavors and an earthy touch on the finish. The texture is smooth and silky.
