Yves Confuron’s Burgundies are a long-time favourite at LEA & SANDEMAN<\/strong> and, once again, Tim Atkin MW in his 2012 Burgundy Special Report<\/a> highlights their greatness. Garnering impressive scores are the Domaine Confuron-Cotetidot<\/strong> Grand Crus – 97 points<\/span> for the Charmes Chambertin 2012<\/span>, 96<\/span> for the Clos Vougeot 2012<\/span> – but these are wines of minuscule availability. With enough availability to make it into our Burgundy offer (but still, as with practically all of 2012, short on supply) are the following,<\/p>\n

2012 GEVREY CHAMBERTIN 1er Cru Craipillot Domaine J. Confuron Cotetidot<\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0(\u00a3468)<\/strong>
\n“Made, as ever, with 100% whole bunches (like everything else at Confuron-Cotetidot), this 0.5ha plot mixes young and older vines. It\u2019s more Chambolle than Gevrey in style, with the emphasis on elegance and supple flavours. But the whole bunches give it some sap. Light bodied and fine, with a sweet, red-fruited core. 2018-26”<\/em>
\n95 points<\/strong>
\nTim Atkin MW<\/strong><\/p>\n

18 points – Sarah Marsh, The Burgundy Briefing<\/strong>
\n17.5 points – Richard Hemming, www.jancisrobinson.com<\/strong><\/p>\n

2012 NUITS SAINT GEORGES 1er Cru Les Vignes Rondes Domaine J. Confuron Cotetidot<\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0(\u00a3498)<\/strong>
\n“If you like your Nuits Premiers Crus to have some firmness and backbone to them, this is your wine. The tannins are on the firm side, but they are supported by plenty of fruit concentration, with flavours of fig and black plums, pepper and clove spice and a dense, compact finish. It\u2019s all there, but will take time to come together in bottle. 2020-28”

18.25 points – Sarah Marsh, The Burgundy Briefing “<\/strong>Velvet footed it pads onto the palate…”<\/em>
\n17.5 points – Richard Hemming, www.jancisrobinson.com
\n90-92 points, Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>2012 VOSNE ROMAN\u00c9E Domaine J. Confuron Cotetidot<\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0<\/span>(<\/span><\/span><\/span>\u00a3300)
\n91 points – Tim Atkin MW<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yves Confuron is also the\u00a0r\u00e9gisseur at Domaine de Courcel<\/strong> in Pommard, which come with the predictably ample scores from Mr Atkin.<\/p>\n

2012 POMMARD 1er Cru Grand Clos des \u00c9penots Domaine de Courcel<\/span><\/a><\/span>\u00a0(\u00a3357 – 6 bottles)<\/strong>
\n“It\u2019s hard to choose between this and Les Rugiens from the same domaine in 2012, such is the quality of both bottlings from the outrageously talented Yves Confuron. This is a dense, concentrated wine, but it\u2019s sappy, lively and refined too, with marked, savoury whole bunch characters on the nose and palate and succulent fruit sweetness. 2018-30”<\/em>
