Coquard Loison Fleurot, Clos Vougeot Grand Cru, 2016
🏰 The 2016 Coquard Loison Fleurot Clos Vougeot Grand Cru is a highly anticipated red Burgundy from a rising star domaine. Coquard Loison Fleurot, led by Thomas Corrado, has gained international attention for their focus on field work and producing wines that clearly express their terroir, reminiscent of esteemed producers like Mugneret Gibourg and Emmanuel Rouget. The Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru vineyard itself is significant, covering 50.96 hectares with varied soils from thin gravel at the top to clay and fine marl at the bottom. The 2016 vintage, despite some challenging conditions, is considered excellent for Burgundy. Neil Martin of Wine Advocate praised the 2016 vintage from this domaine, noting its crystalline red fruit, tension, and silky smoothness. 【Rising star domaine with terroir-expressive wines】
Tasting notes for the 2016 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru describe a healthy, deep ruby color. The bouquet, after a little reduction, reveals tightly knit blackberry, cranberry, and redcurrant fruit, with chalk and light incense aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannins, vibrant red and black fruit, and a faint licorice edge, fanning out with style. This wine is expected to develop beautifully with 3-4 years in bottle.
🍴 This elegant red 布根地(Burgundy) wine pairs wonderfully with classic French cuisine. Consider dishes like roasted game birds, duck confit, beef tenderloin, or mushroom-based dishes. Its fine tannins and vibrant fruit would also complement aged cheeses.
🥂 The 2016 Coquard Loison Fleurot Clos Vougeot Grand Cru is an excellent choice for a special occasion, a serious wine tasting, or as a valuable addition to a Burgundy collector's cellar. It's a wine that promises both immediate pleasure and significant aging potential.
BACKGROUND
Domaine Coquard Loison Fleurot is a wine estate located in Burgundy that produces wine entirely from Pinot Noir. Until recently, these wines were rarely exported, but current commercial director Claire Fleurot and winemaker Thomas Colladot have changed that. Under their guidance, the winery’s reputation has grown significantly. The total vineyard area is approximately 9 hectares (22 acres) spread over 6 different Grand Cru vineyards.
