2019 Domaine Odoul-Coquard Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Aux Combottes

2019 is one of the all-time great vintages for red Burgundy. I have a tiny amount of two wines. I discovered Domaine Odoul Coquard on my travels to Burgundy. This tiny estate focuses on some the finest and best-value red wine coming out of the Côte de Nuits. The wines are made by Sébastian Odoul, the third generation to make wines at this tiny family Domaine. These were part of the great portfolio of Chateau and Estates, the finest portfolio ever assembled. Wine-searcher’s News and Features Section, the highly respected Burgundy specialist, Bill Nanson, wrote a blog article on the 10 Best Unsung Burgundy Producers and his number three pick is Domaine Odoul-Coquard. I quote Nanson, ” The following are my “Top 10 Alternative Domaines: places that are making excellent bottles, and where you can still buy wine.”

“Sébastian Odoul is the latest generation of the family to join the team and he’s made a tremendous series of wines. Keep your eyes out for them.” – Bill Nanson. I strongly recommend.
