2021 Domaine Georges Noellat Grands-Echezeaux Grand Cru
France / Burgundy / Cote de Nuits / Flagey-Echezeaux / Grands-Echezeaux Grand Cru Rouge
Domaine Georges Noëllat Grands-Échezeaux Grand Cru.
Wines raised by Maxime Cheurlin pair exceptionally well with the 2021 vintage, and this Grands-Echezeaux is certainly no exception. It truly helps elevate the terroir to the highest echelons of Burgundy. A deep ruby red color and an exceptional freshness greet both the eye and the nose. Aromas of blackberry, forest floor, tobacco, and a very pleasant chalky minerality emerge soon after. The taste is medium-bodied with fine tannins and subtle hints of mint behind the dark fruit, before touches of white pepper and sage reveal themselves towards the exceptional finish.
