96pts Decanter

This wine is among the best village-level Monthelies that I can remember. Coche produces it from his 0.3ha of south-facing vines in the village and some purchased fruit (which accounts for 15% of the total). The super-ripe cherry fruit is adorned with rose petal and licorice notes, and firm tannins and crisp acidity back up the pretty aromas. Perfect for drinking now for the fruit, or for mid-term ageing. Drinking Window 2025 - 2040.

The 2019 Monthélie Village is a little more backward on the nose compared to the Auxey-Duresses, well defined but just a bit timid at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannin, nicely structured with dark berry fruit towards the finish.

90pts Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

From a west-facing plot in lieu-dit Champs Fulliot, Coche's 2019 Monthélie unfurls to reveal aromas of wild berries, sweet spices, coniferous forest floor and petals. Medium to full-bodied, racy and precise, it's concentrated and bright, with powdery tannins and a more tightly knit profile than the domaine's other reds this year.
