Tasting Notes
From a blend of several sites across Vosne Romanee with vines aged all the way up to 80 years old! It spends a year in French Oak and is rested in bottle for another six months before release. Surprisingly structured for it's level. A variety of red berries jump out of the glass supported by layers of earthy savouriness. Once again I'm left wanting a seat in a Parisian bistro but perhaps with something a bit more substantial. Navarin d'agneau would do the trick! - Pete L
Domaine Confuron-Gindre was established six generations ago in Vosne-Romanée and is located on Rue de La Tâche. A great sign! Though they don't own the monopoly of La Tâche (Domaine Romanée-Conti does), François Confuron-Gindre owns a myriad of ideally located vineyards in Vosne-Romanée and a smattering in Nuits-St-Georges and Gevrey-Chambertin. The Domaine accounts for 11 hectares, with five village wines, across the aforementioned villages; four Premier Crus in Vosne-Romanée; and the one Grand Cru from Échezeaux. A blessing, considering Vosne-Romanée is the Holy Grail for Pinot Noir lovers. The Domaine has been under the radar for quite some time, but since Edouard, Francois's son, is gradually taking over, the word is now out.
