Domaine Confuron-Gindre - Bourgogne Chardonnay 2022

This Bourgogne Chardonnay presents a palate of with ripe fruit and a nutty complexity.

Domaine Confuron-Gindre was established six generations ago in Vosne-Romanée and is located on Rue de La Tâche. A great sign! Though they don't own the monopole of La Tâche (Domaine Romanée-Conti does), François Confuron-Gindre owns a myriad of ideally located vineyards in Vosne-Romanée and a smattering in Nuits-St-Georges and Gevrey-Chambertin. The Domaine accounts for 11 hectares, with five village wines, across the aforementioned villages; four Premier Crus in Vosne-Romanée; and the one Grand Cru from Échezeaux. A blessing, considering Vosne-Romanée is the Holy Grail for Pinot Noir lovers. The Domaine has been under the radar for quite some time, but since Edouard, Francois's son, is gradually taking over, the word is now out.

Mid lemon colour with a softer and more fruit driven bouquet, some yellow notes, peachy. In tank now after racking from barrel, one new in seven. Champ d’Argent below Vosne. Generous juicy fruit, good acidity, will be tidied up before bottling. Drink from 2024-2026. Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy. 100% Chardonnay.
