The 2020 Echézeaux En Orveaux Grand Cru bursts with aromas of sweet red berries, rose petals, peonies, orange rind, plums and cinnamon. Medium to full-bodied, broad and enveloping, with powdery tannins, lively acids and a long, precise finish, this, too, is very promising.
13.5% and some whole bunches to assist the freshness further. Medium crimson purple. There is a grace and elegance to this wine that sits well with Echezeaux and also with my palate. A really exciting dancing fruit. Loving this perfume. Continues through on the palate with a little bit of orange blossom and primary red fruit. Very stylish.
Produced from 0.83ha in En Orveaux and labelled as such. This wine sees a fair amount of whole-cluster fermentation and daily punch downs before being racked into cask (60% new) for 18 months. The result is powerful and concentrated, and an alluringly forward black cherry, mulberry fruit is touched with exotic spice, a hint of smoke, and an earthy mineral edge. The texture is fresh, with crisp acidity, but the firm tannins carry it to a long finish and counsel long ageing. (Drink between 2027-2050)
