Fabien Coche Bourgogne Cote d'Or Pinot Noir 2022

Fabien Coche Bourgogne Côte d'Or Pinot Noir 2022 is a refined introduction to red Burgundy from one of Meursault’s most respected domaines. Sourced from carefully selected parcels on the famed Côte d'Or, this wine offers a true Burgundian expression of Pinot Noir at a remarkably approachable level. Juicy, precise and gently structured, it bridges everyday enjoyment with the character and complexity that Burgundy lovers seek.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, the 2022 shows a vivid, translucent ruby hue with bright reflections, hinting at both freshness and finesse. The nose is lifted and enticing, with aromas of wild raspberry, red cherry and cranberry, layered with rose petals, a touch of peony, and subtle spice notes recalling white pepper, clove and a whisper of fine oak. On the palate, this Pinot Noir is supple and pure-fruited, offering a silky texture framed by fine, chalky tannins. Red berries and pomegranate unfold alongside hints of forest floor, dried herbs and a discreet mineral edge that speaks clearly of Burgundy. The 2022 vintage brings a lovely sense of ripeness and charm, balanced by fresh acidity that keeps the wine lively and precise. It is delicious and accessible in its youth, with the structure to evolve gracefully for 5–7 years, gaining more savory and earthy nuances with time in bottle.

Production
This Bourgogne Côte d'Or Pinot Noir is drawn from well-situated vineyards on the limestone-rich slopes of the Côte d'Or, where thin topsoils over limestone and clay ensure natural concentration and vibrant acidity. The grapes are harvested by hand at optimal ripeness, allowing for careful selection of bunches both in the vineyard and at the winery. Vinification follows a classic Burgundian approach: gentle extraction to preserve finesse, fermentation with controlled temperatures, and élevage in quality French oak barrels—often with a modest proportion of new oak—to add complexity without overshadowing the purity of fruit. The result is a precise, terroir-driven Pinot Noir that reflects both site and sensitive craftsmanship.

Food & Serving
This wine is a versatile partner at the table, pairing beautifully with roast chicken, duck breast, pork tenderloin, veal, or dishes featuring mushrooms and truffles. It also works well with charcuterie, mild to medium cheeses such as Comté or Tomme, and delicately spiced vegetarian dishes based on lentils, beetroot or roasted root vegetables. Serve at 14–16°C (57–61°F) to highlight its freshness and aromatic complexity. A brief decant of 20–30 minutes can help the wine open up, especially in its first few years, allowing the floral and spicy notes to fully emerge.
