The 2022 Confuron-Cotetidot Vosne-Romanée Les Suchots is a Premier Cru Burgundy from one of the most highly regarded vineyard sites in Vosne-Romanée, located in France’s Côte de Nuits. Produced exclusively from Pinot Noir by the respected Confuron-Cotetidot estate, this wine reflects the elegance, aromatic complexity and refined structure that define the appellation while maintaining the estate’s traditional and restrained style. The 2022 vintage delivered ripe fruit concentration balanced by freshness and vibrant acidity, resulting in a wine with both immediate appeal and strong ageing potential. The nose is layered and expressive, revealing aromas of black cherry, wild raspberry and plum alongside violet, exotic spice, forest floor and subtle earthy complexity.
On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with silky yet structured tannins and bright acidity that provide balance and persistence. Flavours of dark berry fruits, red cherry and subtle cranberry unfold gradually alongside savoury notes of clove, liquorice, dried herbs and restrained oak influence developed through careful maturation. The limestone-rich soils of Les Suchots contribute mineral precision and depth, while the estate’s low-intervention approach preserves the purity of Pinot Noir fruit and vineyard character. The texture is concentrated yet refined, leading into a long, dry finish marked by lingering dark fruit, spice and delicate earthy nuances that continue to evolve in the glass.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an excellent Premier Cru Burgundy for customers seeking a refined and cellar-worthy Pinot Noir with classic Vosne-Romanée perfume and structure. The 2022 vintage combines richness with freshness and should continue to evolve gracefully over the next 10–15 years. Best served slightly below room temperature with roast duck, quail, mushroom dishes, lamb or aged soft-rind cheeses.
