Description

Yves Confuron (who is also the régisseur at Domaine de Courcel in Pommard), succinctly described 2019 as he did 2018, which is to say as a "hot, dry and ripe vintage though one with more vines suffering hydric stress and as such the tannins are less ripe than they were in 2018. Because of this, I felt that it was absolutely necessary to wait to pick, and thus we didn't start until the 22nd of September. The fruit was super-clean and solidly ripe with very little sorting required. As to the wines, I found that those coming from cooler terroirs are better balanced than those coming from warmer sectors." As I always underscore, the house style is decidedly old school and there's no point buying these wines without the express intention of aging them over the longer term.

Review

An exuberantly spicy and manifestly ripe nose of poached plum, exotic tea, and floral nuances gives way to suave, round, dense, and seductively textured large-scaled flavours that are dusty, mouth coating and powerful though the finish is again noticeably warm. Drink: 2034+

Tasting Profile
palate

The wines he makes are dark, richly concentrated, and often hard to taste in their development, but experience shows that they age brilliantly.
