This Pinot Noir is silky and elegant with medium body, moderate tannins and an earthy, mineral core spiced with herbs and violet. The soft tannins and fresh acidity discreetly handle richness without dominating, so it thrives with delicate proteins cooked gently rather than heavy grilled dishes. The wine's earthy tones and notes of truffle play beautifully against mushrooms, truffle and aged cheeses, while the red and dark fruit tones meet dishes with a touch of berry or sweetness. Keep the intensity of the food at a medium level, so that wine and dish become equal partners.

About the wine
Fantastic Grand Cru from Jean Grivot, 0.84-hectare Échezeaux parcel. The wine matures faster than other Grand Crus and is silky smooth and elegant in its youth, gaining more body with a few years in the cellar. The wine often has notes of herbs and violet. The parcels have a planting density of 11,000 vines per hectare. The wine is matured for 18 months in oak barrels from the forests of Allier and Nievre.Critic reviews

The 2023 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a crisp and mineral bouquet, with blackcurrant, wild strawberry fruit and a touch of chalk dust developing in the glass. This has superb delineation and focus. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chalky tannins. It's a tensile Echézeaux, surfeit with mineralité, leading to a cohesive and persistent finish that exudes class.
