The wine region of Échezeaux Grand Cru

Grand Cru of Flagey-Échézeaux (Côte de Nuits) on 37 ha above the Clos Vougeot: 100% Pinot Noir across 11 climats — full-bodied, structured reds with a sustained ruby robe. Delicate nose of red fruits (cherry, raspberry, redcurrant) and floral notes (rose, violet), evolving toward black fruits, mocha, leather, truffle and peppery notes. Silky and harmonious palate, 20-year ageing for the best vintages. Often more approachable young than neighbouring Grands Crus, signature depth.


The wine region of Burgundy

Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.

The word of the wine: Bacchus

Roman god of the vine and wine, often evoked to qualify everything that concerns the world of wine, and in particular its consumption. His name gave the adjective "bachique" which suggests the idea of celebration and conviviality.
