Domaine Coquard-Loison-Fleurot

Based in Flagey, but with six Grand Cru holdings from Flagey to Gevrey, the triple-named estate has come into its own under current generation director Claire Fleurot and her talented young winemaker Thomas Colladot.

With a deep belief that great wines are created in the vineyard Coquard-Loison-Fleurot has a stellar collection of Burgundian terroir to work on with 0.18ha Grands Echezaux, 1.29ha Echezaux, 0.64ha Clos de Vougeot, 1.17ha Clos de la Roche, 0.17ha Clos St Denis and 0.32ha Charmes-Chambertin.

The style is still evolving but with a light extraction and a definite but delicate use of new oak that makes for elegant wines showing fruit purity that expresses their terroirs. Should we call this domaine a future star of Burgundy when the wines are already held in great respect? And are in great demand? Let’s just say it’s a star producer still on the rise.
