Domaine Confuron-Cotetidot, Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots, 2015

We present Domaine Confuron-Cotetidot Vosne-Romanée 1er Cru Les Suchots 2015, a profound Pinot Noir from one of the domaine’s largest holdings—over two hectares in this prestigious climat bordering Flagey-Échezeaux. The 2015 vintage, shaped by whole-cluster fermentation and long élevage in mostly second-use oak, exemplifies the estate’s approach to extracting purity, density and finesse from old vines planted to the Confuron clone.

Tasting Notes: On the nose, Les Suchots 2015 offers an ultra-floral and spicy bouquet of black raspberry, dark cherry, cassis and plum, laced with exotic Asian tea, sandalwood, violet and subtle cocoa. Mineral and floral nuances add energy and lift to the ripe fruit aromas, creating a compelling sense of depth and intrigue.

On the palate, the wine is densely packed yet magically light on its feet, with sappy, velvety textures enveloping powerfully structured fruit and fine, ripe tannins. A pungent minerality drives the long, savory finish, balancing sensuality and austerity in a way that promises profound evolution over the next decade and beyond.
