Grapes are harvested in leaky boxes and sorted out. Then they are destemmed and put in tanks. Punching of the cap is made during alcoholic fermentation, without pumping over. Fermentation on the skins lasts between 15 and 20 days. Wine is put in oak barrels after a light settling of the juice, for a period of ageing included between 12 and 18 months. Wine making and maturing are carefully followed by Robert Vernizeau, a talented winemaker.
The Echezeaux Grand Cru 2007 has a very beautiful ruby colour with brilliant tints. The nose develops vanilla, grilled bread and sweet spices notes (cinnamon, nutmeg) with red fruits aromas (redcurrant, raspberry).In mouth, this wine is full-bodied and well balanced. Great ageing potential.
It will perfectly match with game birds and refined cheese like Epoisses or Chambertin.
