FEATURES
🏰 The 2022 Burgundy vintage is celebrated for its consistent quality across both red and white wines, despite a hot and dry summer that followed a milder winter and spring. Strategic vineyard management and timely rainfall contributed to its success. Red wines from 2022 are deeply colored, with a lush fruit expression, full body, well-developed yet velvety tannins, and abundant extract. They are perfectly balanced, with no single element dominating, and exhibit firmly red-fruited aromatic and flavor profiles with an expressive floral character. These wines are beautiful and fruit-forward, offering excellent balance, great acidity, and fine tannins, making them enjoyable in their youth while also being worthy of cellaring. Grands Echezeaux Grand Cru, located in the Côte de Nuits, is known for combining strength, distinction, and longevity. It typically presents a deep ruby or garnet color. In its youth, the wine displays aromas of great finesse, reminiscent of cherry and dark chocolate or cocoa bean. As it matures, these aromas evolve towards nuances of undergrowth, truffle, fine leather, and sometimes hints of cigar or cedar wood. Expect notes of mocha, toasted bread, liquorice, black berries, and a hint of undergrowth, leading to a powerful and persistent palate with chocolate and peppermint. The tannins are refined, contributing to a silky and velvety body, culminating in a very long aftertaste. 【 Combines strength, distinction, and longevity, embodying the essence of a Grand Cru 】
