Echezeaux Grand Cru 2020

The 2020 Echézeaux Grand Cru from Philippe Charlopin demonstrates the nobility and complexity expected from this esteemed grand cru vineyard. This wine exemplifies both the terroir's exceptional qualities and Charlopin's masterful winemaking approach.

The nose is profoundly complex, offering a sophisticated array of ripe black fruits - cassis, plum, and black cherry interweave seamlessly, while subtle spice notes and judicious oak influence add further layers of complexity. The aromatic profile speaks to the depth and pedigree of its grand cru origins.

On the palate, the wine shows impressive concentration while maintaining remarkable elegance. Medium-bodied yet intense, the wine's fine-grained tannins provide sophisticated structural support. The finish is particularly noteworthy - rich and velvety in texture, with remarkable persistence that continues to unfold, hallmarks of a true grand cru Burgundy.
