"Lighter colour than Echézeaux. The nose is muted with tar and a touch of blackcherry and blueberry. Very smooth, silky palate. Velvety tannins - this is more like a Romanée-Saint-Vivant. Backward. Less expressive and open than Echézeaux but utterly harmonious. Long finish. Not flamboyant, more svelte and sensuous. Utterly charming. (839 cases produced.) Tasted February 2001."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Grands-Echezeaux is a Grand Cru near Vosne-Romanee in Burgundy's Cote de Nuits, producing refined, harmonious Pinot Noir reds that are richer and more structured than neighboring Echezeaux, with silky depth and long aging potential.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
