Domaine Jacques Prieur, Echezeaux Grand Cru 2020

Domaine Jacques Prieur’s Echezeaux Grand Cru 2020 is a refined expression of Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy’s most prestigious Grand Cru vineyards. Combining the elegance of Vosne-Romanée with the concentration of the 2020 vintage, it offers impressive depth, silky texture and excellent cellaring potential.

Tasting Notes
The wine displays a deep ruby colour with garnet highlights. Its bouquet is finely layered, revealing red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry alongside violet, rose petal, subtle spice and delicate earthy nuances. With time in the glass, more savoury notes of forest floor and cedar may emerge. On the palate, it is poised and structured, with vibrant acidity, polished tannins and a concentrated core of ripe red fruit. The finish is long and persistent, balancing freshness with the supple, generous character associated with the warm 2020 vintage. It can be enjoyed after decanting, but should gain further complexity over the next 10–20 years.

Production
Echezeaux is located in the Côte de Nuits, just north of Vosne-Romanée, where well-drained limestone and marl soils help Pinot Noir retain both fragrance and structure. Grapes for this level of Burgundy are carefully harvested by hand and meticulously sorted before fermentation. The wine is traditionally matured in French oak, allowing the fruit, mineral character and site expression to develop without overwhelming the natural elegance of the Grand Cru.

Food & Serving
Serve at approximately 16–18°C. A gentle decant of 30–60 minutes can help open the wine in its youth, although older bottles are best handled carefully and poured shortly after settling. Its refined structure pairs beautifully with roast duck, pigeon, wild mushroom dishes, truffle risotto, glazed veal or simply prepared game birds. For a more regional match, try it with Burgundy-style coq au vin or a mild, mature cow’s-milk cheese.
