Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru Jean-Jacques Confuron 1999

La «cuvée»

Clos de Vougeot presents a complex nose with fruity aromas and intense peony notes. The palate features plenty of richness, good acidity and a silky body. This wine will require 7-12 years' aging before it reaches its peak. It makes an excellent accompaniment to red meat and game.

The Confuron domain was taken over in 1988 by Alain and Sophie Meunier. Situated at Premeaux-Prissey very near to Nuit-Saints-Saint-Georges, the domain belonged to Sophie's father. They decided to convert to organic viticulture. Today, the vineyards count 8 hectares and produce 12 Côte de Nuits appellations. Among them are included the prestigious Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru, Vosne-Romanée Premier Cru, Clos de Vougeot and Romanée Saint-Vivant Grands Crus. Since 2003, horses are used to work the domain's oldest parcel, Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru, which is 80 years old.
