Tasting Notes
The vines are situated below Morey and Vosne, 90% gamay, with a small half in whole bunches, without cool pre-maceration. Mid red crimson, light white pepper. Pretty and vivacious but a sudden burst of lush though fresh strawberry in the middle. Harmonious tannins. JASPER MORRIS, INSIDE BURGUNDY
Edouard’s domaine covers just 1.50ha, but provides seven wines. Most of the land has come from the family, with Nuits-St-Georges Aux Allots as a farming contract. Spanning across the Côte de Nuits with plots in Vosne-Romanée, Gevrey-Chambertin, and Nuits-Saint-Georges, the Confuron name has always resonated very far in Vosne-Romanée with three influential branches (including Jean-Jacques Confuron and Confuron-Cotetidot) of the family owning substantial holdings in the village. So while only just beginning his legacy, he has the strong backing of his family and access to plots rarely accessible to new winemakers of the region.
Edouard plans to certify as organic in the near future, as his family domaine practises organics but has not yet been certified. His wines are made in a small cuverie down on the old RN74, with a cellar attached to the family domaine. Edouard uses more whole bunches than in the family range, and vinifies those cuvées without sulphur, only adding it at the end.
