On 25 Oct in the little town of Pouilly-les-Nonains, just west of Roanne, Marc and Anne-Marie Robelin (not wine professionals – just the purest of wine lovers) organised a great vertical of Coche-Dury's Corton-Charlemagne, from 2006 back to 1997. This nicely followed on from their similar event 10 years ago when very much the same crowd looked at his Corton-Charlemagne 1996 back to 1986. This was the first time that Jean-François Coche and his son Raphael had had a chance to see such an array of their top wine since the last tasting chez Robelin in 1999.
