Note di degustazione
There’s a creaminess to this wine in 2021, a roundness that adds to the medium-bodied palate with its pure, lifted red fruit. There are delicate notes of florals and Earl Grey – adding an elegant nuance to the juicy profile. Although it shows the lightness of the year, it’s quite persistent with a gentle lift of tea and cherry blossom on the finish, powered by vibrant acidity.

This is even spicier with its cool and pure aromas of violet, lilac, rose petal, Asian-style tea and mix of red and dark berries. The suave and seductively textured flavors are not quite as dense but they are finer on the mid-palate yet the robust and powerful finish is consistent with what one typically expects from examples of Echézeaux from Les Rouges du Bas. Patience again strongly advised.
Bursting with aromas of sweet cherries, red berries and plums mingled with sweet spices, orange zest and rose petals, the 2021 Echézeaux Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot) is medium to full-bodied, ample and fleshy, with a seamless, complete profile, capturing all the charm of the vintage.
The 2021 Echézeaux Grand Cru feels a little reduced on the nose, with earthy red fruit, baked cherries, wild mint and sage. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. This wine is cohesive with a little more flesh and complexity compared directly with the Clos de Vougeot. Once the aromatics kick into gear, this should develop into a decent Echézeaux.

Louis Jadot is arguably the most consistent négociant house in Burgundy. It has managed to straddle both the entry-level and fine wine market, while retaining respect in both.
