2022 Domaine Coche Dury Volnay 1er cru, Burgundy, France
ABOUT THE WINE
This Volnay 1er Cru offers a captivating bouquet of red fruit — fresh cherry, wild strawberry — lifted by floral hints of rose and violet, touched with soft spice, earth, and a whisper of savory complexity. On the palate, the wine’s texture is plush yet precise, with vibrant fruit framed by chalky minerality and very fine, almost imperceptible tannins. The acidity provides bright lift, giving the wine both energy and grace through a long, harmonious finish that evolves with aeration.
Crafted from meticulously tended Volnay Premier Cru vineyards, the 2022 vintage reflects Coche‑Dury’s hallmark balance between richness and restraint. Traditional Burgundian vinification emphasizes whole‑cluster selection and gentle extraction to preserve purity of fruit and terroir expression, with élevage in high‑quality French oak (modest new oak) that integrates seamlessly, adding structure without dominating the wine’s intrinsic subtleties. Ideal pairings include roasted duck breast with a cherry gastrique, porcini‑infused risotto, or aged Comté — dishes that echo the wine’s finesse and complexity.
