Echezeaux Grand Cru Maison Castagnier Jerome, 2021

Echezeaux Grand Cru from Maison Castagnier Jérôme is a finely detailed Burgundy built for lovers of elegant, site-driven Pinot Noir. Coming from one of the Côte de Nuits’ most celebrated Grand Cru vineyards, it combines rare depth, precision, and a distinctly Burgundian sense of finesse.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, expect a bright ruby color with a refined, translucent edge. The nose typically opens with red cherry, wild strawberry, rose petal, and subtle spice, followed by more savory notes of forest floor, earth, and a gentle mineral lift. On the palate, Echezeaux Grand Cru usually shows a silky texture, layered red-fruit purity, and beautifully integrated acidity. The finish is long and graceful, with fine tannins and the kind of balance that promises excellent development over time. While approachable in its youth with careful decanting, it should reward cellaring for many years.

Production
Echezeaux is a Grand Cru vineyard in the Côte de Nuits, where limestone-rich soils and a cool continental climate help shape wines of perfume, structure, and complexity. In a vintage like 2021, careful vineyard work and selective harvesting are especially important, as the style tends to emphasize freshness, precision, and aromatic clarity. Vinification is typically focused on preserving the delicacy of Pinot Noir, with gentle extraction and élevage in French oak to support rather than overwhelm the fruit.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with dishes that echo its elegance, such as roast duck, veal tenderloin, game birds, mushroom risotto, or earthy truffle-based dishes. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if opening young to allow the aromas to fully unfold.

Producer
Maison Castagnier Jérôme is a Burgundy producer associated with a careful, terroir-focused approach that aims to express the character of each appellation. In a region where vineyard identity matters deeply, the estate’s work with prestigious sites like Echezeaux reflects a commitment to classical Burgundian style and precision. Wines from this level of vineyard are sought after for their refinement, age-worthiness, and strong regional identity.
