2021 Grands Echezeaux Grand Cru Domaine Henri de Villamont Burgund 0,75l

A Grand Cru Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy’s most coveted vineyard sites, the 2021 Grands Echézeaux from Domaine Henri de Villamont combines finesse, depth, and precision in a truly aristocratic style. Its close proximity to Romanée-Conti and classic Côte de Nuits pedigree make it a wine of remarkable distinction and serious ageing potential.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows an elegant, refined profile with a bright core of red berries and cherry, lifted by floral hints of violet. With air, more complex layers emerge: subtle earth, spice, and a delicate truffle nuance that add depth and dimension. The palate is silky and precise, with fine-grained tannins, lively acidity, and a cool, mineral-driven fruit character. The finish is long, layered, and noble, suggesting excellent development over time. This is a wine built for patience and should evolve beautifully over many years.

Production
Sourced from the legendary Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru vineyard in the Côte de Nuits, the wine comes from chalky marl soils that contribute structure, minerality, and tension. The grapes are hand-harvested with strict selection, followed by spontaneous fermentation and gentle extraction to preserve elegance and balance. It is then aged for 16 to 18 months in French barriques, adding depth, subtle spice, and complexity.

Food & Serving
Best enjoyed with dishes that match its refinement, such as game, lamb, truffle-based recipes, or elevated French cuisine. It also pairs beautifully with mature cheeses. Serve at 16–18°C, and decanting is recommended if drinking young to allow the aromas to open fully.
