Coche-Dury, Hospices de Beaune, Corton Grand Cru 'Cuvee Docteur Peste' 2020
Variety: Pinot Noir
Jean-Francois Coche-Dury is regarded as one of the greatest winemakers on the planet, additionally acquiring the moniker “The King of Meursault” from Jancis Robinson. Procuring one of these is next to impossible as they quite often are snatched up immediately by collectors. The great name of this domain comes from the marriage of Jean Francois Coche to Odile Durt back in 1975, allowing the domain to acquire more land holdings. Home base is in the village of Meursault, though they have other vineyards spread through other communes. What is wild about how great the wines are is that the family doesn’t exactly do anything out of the ordinary. In fact, now retired Jean-Francois and his son, Raphael adhere strictly to tradition when it comes to how vineyards are handled. Importer Kermit Lynch likens the family’s practices to the monks who originally planted vines in Burgundy during the Middle Ages. Most of their vines are 50 to 90 years old, yielding less and less as the years go by.
Made from the Hospice de Beaune’s holdings of old vines on the iconic hill of Corton this wine is named for 'Jean-Louis Peste,' a doctor at the Hospices de Beaune for 30 years in the mid-19th century. His daughter, Baroness du Baÿ, bequeathed vast vineyard holdings to the hospital in order to help support operation costs each year. Today sales still benefit the Hospices du Beaune. Vineyards located in Corton-Chaumes & Voierosse (south and south-west facing) constitute 37% of this Cuvée with Corton-Bressandes making up the next largest constituent, with half the parcel dating from 1940.
