Note di degustazione
The 2020 Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru is stellar. It boasts tremendous aromatic presence and nervous energy. Blood orange, rose petal, lavender, chalk and dark red-toned fruit build effortlessly. There is a feeling of vibrancy to the Grands Echézeaux that is impossible to miss. Bright acids perk up the long, beautifully persistent finish. Readers will have to be patient with the 2020. It's a gorgeous wine in the making.

Healthy deep garnet. Unlike the Échezeaux, this is quite inexpressive on the nose currently. Sweet, charming start with vibrant fruit on the palate. Real energy here! And certainly enough freshness. Quite powerful on the finish. A suggestion of something exotic and spicy. Really very exciting and it will presumably develop a bouquet with time in bottle. Again, that slightly dry finish … (JR)
The 2020 Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru was picked on 25 August at 33.5hL/ha. It is clearly a level up on the nose over its “kid brother” with more mineralité and terroir expression. With dark berry fruit, incense and a light sous-bois element, there is a sense of cohesion and refinement that is very alluring. The palate is medium-bodied with razor-sharp tannins. Symmetry from start to finish, it's spicier than the Echézeaux with a slightly confit finish. This feels very persistent and will age with aplomb. Gorgeous. 960 cases produced. Tasted at Corney & Barrow’s annual in bottle tasting in London.
