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.

Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
