CONFURON-COTETIDOT

Gevrey-Chambertin 2014

There is enough reduction present to push the underlying fruit to the background. The restrained, cool and intense medium weight flavors possess excellent precision and plenty of minerality that adds a touch of life to the impressively long and complex finish. The supporting tannins are quite fine-grained and should allow this terrific effort to be enjoyed earlier than usual. Highly recommended.

About Burghound.com

Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
