Domaine Confuron-Cotetidot’s ~11 ha estate is a rare Burgundian jewel producing acclaimed Pinot Noir from the breadth of Côte de Nuits terroirs.

The Confuron family’s history with vines dates back centuries, and their work with massal selection — including an eponymous Pinot clone — reflects deep expertise in vine genetics and terroir expression.

The vineyards have largely been farmed without synthetic herbicides or pesticides — a rarity in the region — with traditional practices like ploughing, short pruning, and green harvests maintaining low yields that build concentration and complexity in the grapes.

In the cellar, the domaine’s vintage-to-vintage consistency comes from 100 % whole-cluster fermentation (they do not own a destemmer), extended maceration (2–3 weeks), and up to 24 months of oak élevage — often in predominantly older barrels — followed by bottling without fining or filtration.

This traditional methodology yields wines with serious structure, spice, and aromatic depth that often benefit from long ageing (10–20+ years), revealing layers of nuance: red and black fruit, violet, forest floor, spice, and minerality.
