Domaine Coche-Bizouard is a family owned wine estate in Meursault. Meursault is one of the most famous wine villages in the Côte de Beaune in Côte d'Or, Burgundy's central district. The winery is in the village of Meursault itself but the 10 hectares of vineyards they have are spread out over several communes: In addition to Meursault they also have vineyards in other villages in Burgundy: Pommard, Auxey-Duresse and Monthelie.

The work in the vineyards is traditional. They use plough the soil rather than use chemical treatments. Work in the wine cellar is equally traditional. Vinification is in vats and careful ageing in oak barrels with varying length of time in wood depending on the cuvee and the vintage. They are also using some modern winemaking techniques, such as a vibrating sorting table.

Domaine Coche-Bizouard makes both red and white wines but being in Meursault the whites, made from chardonnay, takes pre-eminence. For the reds they use the classic Bourgogne red grape variety, pinot noir. They also make small quantities of gamay. They have several different vineyard plots and each plot is made into a separate cuvee. Their list of wines extends up to almost 20 different labels.
