Producer Profile

Domaine Confuron-Cotetidot is a distinguished family-run winery located in Vosne-Romanée, at the heart of Burgundy's Côte de Nuits.

Established in 1964 through the union of the Confuron and Cotetidot families—both with deep-rooted viticultural traditions dating back to the 17th century—the estate now spans approximately 11 hectares of esteemed vineyards, including Grand Cru, Premier Cru, and Village appellations

Viticulture

Domaine Confuron-Cotetidot practices organic viticulture, abstaining from synthetic herbicides and pesticides. They favour traditional vineyard management techniques, including regular plowing and short pruning, to maintain low yields between 35-45 hl/ha. This approach not only respects the environment but also enhances the expression of terroir in their wines .

Tasting Note

Attractive layered aromas featuring notes of dark currant with lots of earth. There is a good volume to the imposingly concentrated and textured mid-weight flavours that have excellent persistence. An austere and balanced finish where a touch of the stems used in the winemaking is evident.

Food Matching

A wine for red meat, game and well aged cheeses.
