Following an outstanding 2020 vintage, the ’21s are, remarkably, even better. Coddington is the richest in the Kumeu Chard stable. Concentrated notes of honeyed peach, pineapple rind and buttered toast pulse with drive and force.The richness comes from fruit ripeness-the oak is present but in a supporting role-with a mouthwatering acidity. It’s shapely, long and elegant, and gives Meursault Premier Cru a serious run for its money
Professional Reviews
Ripe stone fruit/peach/nectarine flavours with nutty oak, vanilla, and bready yeast lees flavours. Complex and accessible wine that would benefit from a little bottle age but is deliciously accessible now.
