Product Description:
Meursault with both lift and depth. Domaine Fabien Coche’s Meursault 2023 is drawn from old-vine parcels including Les Chevalières above the village and Le Limozin below Premier Cru Genevrières. The blend marries mineral tension from north-facing slopes with the supple weight of mid-slope vineyards, giving a wine of layered precision and quiet generosity.
Fabien Coche is a fourth-generation vigneron and cousin of the famed Coche-Dury family. Since 1998 he has farmed organically, building a reputation for white Burgundy that balances clarity of terroir with measured richness. His style sits between the taut definition of Roulot and the textured breadth of Coche-Dury, placing him among the most compelling voices in the Côte de Beaune.
The 2023 vintage shows lifted white flowers, struck match and orchard fruits, underpinned by saline drive and old-vine concentration. It is a village Meursault of near–Premier Cru poise, refined yet generous, carrying the kind of depth rarely found at this level.

Reviews & Accolades
"A fabulous village Meursault and a total steal when compared to the $1,000+ wines of his cousin Raphael (Coche-Dury). Fabien Coche is one of the most underrated sources of high-quality white Burgundy in the Côte de Beaune."
— William Kelley, Wine Advocate
"Traditional rather than austere modern wines, substantial without being fat, and fairly priced—if anything in Burgundy remains fairly priced."
— Matthew Hayes, Wine Writer
