Tucked away in Flagey-Echezeaux, Domaine Coquard-Loison-Fleurot has been transformed in the last decade into one of the Cote de Nuits' true insider addresses. Their Vosne-Romanee 1er Cru blends fruit from old-vine Beaux Monts with declassified Echezeaux - effectively a baby Grand Cru. The 2019 comes from vines around 80 years old, raised in 50% new oak, and shows the kind of pure, deeply layered Vosne character that explains why critics and sommeliers have been quietly hoarding these bottles. Black cherry, blueberry, violet, and that signature peppery Vosne savory streak, all framed by supple tannins and serious mid-palate density.
