Wafting from the glass with aromas of pear, mint, sweet citrus fruits, buttery pastry, fresh ginger and almonds, the 2020 Meursault Les Rougeots is medium to full-bodied, deep and satiny, with a textural attack that segues into a racy, concentrated mid-palate that's a touch broader-shouldered and more muscular than Coche's other communal-level bottlings this year. Seamless and complete, it concludes with a long, saline finish.
A perfumed and ultra-pure nose offers up a broad array of aromas that include lemon, acacia and mineral reduction. The finer but not denser medium weight flavors are notably stonier while preserving the same gorgeous texture as well as delivering noticeably better depth and persistence. This is stunning good for a villages-level wine plus it should amply repay extended keeping.
