The 2022 Confuron-Cotetidot Nuits-Saint-Georges is a structured and traditionally styled red Burgundy from the Côte de Nuits in France. Produced exclusively from Pinot Noir by the respected Confuron-Cotetidot estate, this wine reflects the depth, earthy complexity and firm structure that define the Nuits-Saint-Georges appellation. The 2022 vintage delivered ripe fruit concentration balanced by fresh acidity, resulting in a wine with both approachability and strong ageing potential. The nose is expressive and layered, showing aromas of black cherry, red plum and wild raspberry alongside notes of dried herbs, spice, forest floor and subtle earthy minerality.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with fine but persistent tannins and vibrant acidity that provide structure and length. Flavours of dark berry fruits, red cherry and plum skin are supported by savoury notes of liquorice, clove and gentle oak spice developed through careful maturation. The clay and limestone-rich soils of Nuits-Saint-Georges contribute depth and earthy complexity, while the estate’s restrained winemaking approach preserves vineyard character and balance. The texture remains concentrated yet focused, leading into a long, dry finish with lingering dark fruit, spice and savoury nuances.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Burgundy for customers seeking a more structured and savoury expression of Pinot Noir with classic Côte de Nuits character. The 2022 vintage is already showing impressive balance while retaining the capacity to evolve further over the next 8–12 years. Best served slightly below room temperature with roast duck, lamb, mushroom dishes, charcuterie or aged hard cheeses.
