2018 Domaine Jean-Jacques Confuron Côte de Nuits-Villages Les Vignottes

The Jean-Jacques Confuron Côte de Nuits-Villages Les Vignottes comes from vines on average 40 years old. This Côte de Nuits Villages les Vignottes is raised on about 30% new oak and the rest on used oak in order to get a good balance and not to be too excessive in the wood because the beautiful fruit must have the upper hand. This 100% Pinot Noir has a ruby red color in the glass with aromas of cherries. If the wine is drunk young, decanting is recommended. In the nose we smell blackberries, dark plums and cherries with some earthy tones and herbs (rosemary). In the mouth this Pinot is firm and sultry. The taste is well balanced with fine tannins, fresh acidity, lively black fruit and a juicy blackberry finish that gives a nice punch. Very good. If the wine is drunk young, decanting is recommended.
