Tasting notes
The 2021 Echézeaux Grand Cru, which was protected by the frost with candles, hence there are seven barrels this year compared to the five barrels of the previous year. Red and black fruit on the nose, graphite coming through with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins. The partial whole clusters lend a discrete pepperiness, very nicely focused with sour cherry and clove towards quite a structured finish that will require time to absorb the new oak. Quite serious. Patience required.

Aromas of sweet raspberries and cherries mingled with orange zest, spices, peonies and vine smoke introduce the 2021 Echézeaux Grand Cru, a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and textural wine with an enveloping core of cool, vibrant fruit and rich, powdery tannins.
