Produced from a third of a hectare in En Orveaux, the Bouchard Echézeaux from domaine fruit is positively lovely (and a step up from the one produced with purchased fruit). The texture has admirable density but no heaviness; there is an elegance and finesse, even in this hot year, that is very refreshing. This wine has a particularly forward, ripe, plummy fruit with a marvellous nuance of earthy, savoury and spicy notes. This delightful wine will age for at least twenty years. Drinking Window: 2027 - 2050 ... More details

92-94 The 2020 Echézeaux Grand Cru offers up aromas of plums and cherries mingled with exotic spices, licorice and rose petals. Full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, its broad and textural attack segues into an ample core of fruit, framed by supple tannins and lively acids, before concluding with a long, perfumed finish.

90-92 The 2020 Echézeaux Grand Cru, which comes from En Orveaux, is fresh and delineated on the nose, touches of mint and dark chocolate infusing the dark berry fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe, quite dense tannins. This is quite a "compact" Echézeaux, grippy and spicy, just missing a little elegance on the finish.

green grapes

Varietal: Pinot Noir

Whilst the Pinot Noir grape varietal has its origins in France, and is most closely associated with fine Burgundy wines, it is now grown in almost every wine producing country in the world. There are many reasons for this – the densely packed, deep black bunches of fruits are responsible for making a wide variety of excellent wines, generally agreed to be amongst the most drinkable and accessible one can find. With flavors ranging from currants and red and black berries, to more earthy, spicy notes, Pinot Noir is a versatile varietal which is revered for its relatively light body and beautifully vivid red color However, the grapes themselves are notoriously susceptible to various diseases, and struggle in fluctuating climates. This has not stopped wineries planting and cultivating these vines, though, as Pinot Noir, when grown carefully and treated properly, is a grape with a wide and increasing fan-base, and more often than not produces wonderful wines.

Region: Burgundy

The beautiful region of Burgundy in France is famously home to some of the most exquisite red wines to be found anywhere on earth, and is most commonly associated with the silky, elegant and flavorful Pinot Noir varietal wines which are commonly produced there. However, the superb and mineral rich soils fed by the Rhone river, and the long hot summers and mild autumns of the region produce a wide variety of fine grapes, and as such, Burgundy produces plenty of different wines which are equally as good as the produce the region is famed for. The region of Burgundy itself has a wine-making history which stretches back at least two thousand years, and as such, it comes as no surprise that the wineries which fill the dozens of controlled appellations of the region rely heavily on traditional methods and techniques when it comes to producing their famous wines.

Country: France

Year in, year out, France enjoys its prestigious reputation as the producer of the finest wines in the world. With a wine making history which spans several thousand years and owes its expertise to the Romans, it comes as little surprise that this most highly esteemed of the Old World wine countries continues to impress and enchant both novices and experts to this day. Despite the rise in quality of wines from neighboring European countries, not to mention the New World, the French wine industry continues to boom, with up to eight billion bottles being produced in recent years. However, France prides itself on always putting quality before quantity, and the wide range in fine produce is a testament to the dedication and knowledge of the wineries across the country. Indeed, from rich and complex reds to light and aromatic white wines, French wines are as varied and interesting as they are enjoyable to drink, making this country a firm favorite for wine lovers across the globe.
