A standout Aligoté from one of Burgundy’s most exciting under-the-radar domaines. Domaine Fabien Coche crafts this old-vine Aligoté from parcels planted between the 1950s and 1970s in Meursault, delivering unexpected depth and richness for the variety. Fabien Coche, cousin to the famed Coche-Dury family, has established his own reputation for purity, precision, and authenticity in winemaking—bridging the tension between tradition and modernity.
The 2023 Aligoté is strikingly complex: white flowers and struck match aromatics overlay ripe orchard fruit, citrus zest, and saline minerality. Its concentration reflects the estate’s old vines, while fermentation in stainless steel preserves freshness and energy. William Kelley (Wine Advocate) has called Fabien Coche “one of the most underrated sources of high-quality white Burgundy in the Côte de Beaune.”
For lovers of Chardonnay-based white Burgundy, this Aligoté offers remarkable value, punching well above its humble appellation and standing as a brilliant introduction to the domaine’s style.
