Domaine Confuron-Cotetidot, Nuits Saint Georges 1er Cru Les Vignes Rondes 2008, 75cl
Based in Vosne-Romanée, Confuron-Cotetidot is a traditional family domaine with holdings across some of the finest vineyards of the Côte de Nuits. Their old-school approach includes whole bunch fermentation and long barrel ageing, producing Burgundies with perfume, structure and excellent ageing potential.
"A spicy, ripe, gamy and intensely earthy nose of red berry fruit and distinct floral notes gives way to extremely serious (in fact this is the epitome of the old school style) flavors that are delicious and long but fashioned in such a way that it will not be approachable for many years. A wine that is very Nuits in character. Sweet spot Outstanding. Drink 2020+" Allen Meadows, Burghound
