Experience the elegance and complexity of Echezeaux Grand Cru from the prestigious Cote de Nuits, crafted exclusively from 100% Pinot Noir grapes. This exceptional wine is the result of meticulous vineyard management on slopes reaching up to 360 metres, with rich, deep soils composed of fine silt stone, clay, pebbles, and a hard limestone base that defines the heart of Vosne-Romanee. The winemaking process involves careful fermentation in vats for several weeks, followed by extended ageing in oak barrels for up to 18 months, allowing the wine to develop its remarkable depth, structure, and nuanced character. Perfect alongside feathered game, this Grand Cru is an outstanding expression of terroir and time-honoured tradition.
