Coquard Loison Fleurot Charmes Chambertin 2019
"This fine domaine was focusing on the French market until the latest generation represented by the talented & energetic commercial director Ms. Claire Fleurot and the young wine maker Thomas Colladot joined forces to bring this domaine to new heights through the expansion of its reputation around the world.

Claire is responsible for the marketing of the wines in France and around the world, Thomas is in charge of the wine making, and both of them together are in charge of the expansive vineyard selection of the domaine.

The family owns an incredible selection of six (6) Grand Cru vineyards in Cote de Nuits, including important holdings in Grands Echezeaux, Echezeaux, Clos de Vougeot, Charmes Chambertin, Clos de la Roche and Clos saint Denis.

Thomas is the best friend of one of Burgundy’s most celebrated wine makers, Sebastian Cathiard, and shares his wine-making philosophy along the belief that great wines are being created first in the vineyards. And indeed, both Sebastian’s and Thomas & Claire’s vineyards are famous for being among the finest in Burgundy as the result of the hard work invested in them. They also meet often to taste and discuss their wines together.

The wines of Domaine Coquard Loison Fleurot are characterised by their purity and transparency of their terroirs." - Pearl of Burgundy

The 2019 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru was much more closed on the nose compared to the Clos Vougeot, offering tightly wound black fruit mixed with blueberry. The medium-bodied palate displays good salinity on the entry. This is a nicely proportioned Charmes-Chambertin that is predominantly black fruit with veins of blood orange and black pepper toward the finish. It will just need 4–5 years’ bottle age for the aromatics to awaken. This is 15.0° alcohol, so drink modestly if alcohol goes to your head. 92-94 points, Neal Martin - Vinous

Here too there is just enough wood to remark upon framing the spiced aromas of poached plum, warm earth and a hint of the sauvage. The delicious and vibrant medium-bodied flavors possess solid mid-palate concentration that confers a sappy texture to the youthfully austere and lingering if slightly warm finale. 91-93 points Burghound

A full purple colour, with a nose that is unusually reticent for Charmes-Chambertin. There is generous fruit on the palate, but this is softer than most, a little bit toasty behind, perhaps from the 50% new wood utilised for the grand cru wines. There is a long finish but the wine is currently perplexing. It measures the highest degree in the cellar (15%) but with a low pH. I am taking a cautious line. 91-95 Points - Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy
