Tasting notes
The 2019 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a really gorgeous bouquet with vivacious wild strawberry and cranberry fruit, crushed stone and light tobacco scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and just a hint of balsamic that complements the fresh red fruit. There is tension from start to finish, gradually building in depth so that it exerts impressive grip on the peppery finish whilst maintaining elegance. There’s undeniably clever winemaking here. Just a beautiful 2019 Burgundy. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

Aromas of rich red berries, cherries, raw cocoa, peonies, spices and orange rind introduce the 2019 Echezeaux Grand Cru, a full-bodied, broad and velvety wine that's charming and enveloping, with terrific depth at the core, lively acids and a long, penetrating finish. Its alliance of drama with precision makes this a very special wine from the Mugneret family.
The 2019 Echézeaux Grand Cru is raised in about 75% new oak. It has a high-toned bouquet lent a light spiciness by the contribution of 15% whole cluster. Light flinty aromas develop with aeration, followed later by more briny aromas. This is quite mercurial in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a fresh opening, and very elegant and silky in mouthfeel; the stem contribution is very discreet. The wine fans out wonderfully on the finish but retains its aristocratic air. Excellent.
