RATINGS

92-94Vinous / IWC

...offers earthy red berry aromas with hints of sloe and fig. The fleshy, ripe palate has an attractive, corpulent entry, moderate acidity and juicy red cherries and strawberry laced with black pepper on the finish... ...a delicious Echézeaux to drink over the next two decades. (January 2020)

17+ Jancis Robinson

Dark, ripe and still with a rocky freshness. Lovely depth of fruit but with a lightness of touch thanks to that slightly dry mineral texture. A light herbal and savoury note. Finely dry, almost chalky texture. Elegant and welcoming at the same time. Firm yet filled out with that elegant dark fruit. Real finesse and harmony. Long in fruit.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Nuits Villages, Flagey-Echezeaux, Echezeaux

Echezeaux is a 93-acre Grand Cru vineyard on the southern edge of the Cote de Nuits. It up the slope from Clos de Vougeot and Grands Echezeaux and is one of the largest grand crus in Burgundy. The vineyard varies in elevation from 250 to 300 meters, and the terroir includes significant clay as well as thin, rocky soil. The largest proprietors are Domaine de la Romanee Conti, with 11.68 acres; Mongeard-Mugneret with 6.25 acres, and Emmanuel-Rouget, with 3.58 acres. Echezeaux produces red wine.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, Grand Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
