The 2020 Echezeaux Grand Cru is initially bashful on the nose, takes its time to unfurl with light raspberry and blackberry scents entwined with rose petal and sous-bois. The palate is sensual on teh entry, silky smooth and very harmonious. Whilst there is enormous depth or grip, this is all about finess and purity, its caressing vintage. Just a lovely Exhezeaux.

This is a monumental wine, with a lovely, dark and spicy berry fruit character accompanied by rich earthy notes, and a firm mineral underpinning. The texture is velvety and rich, the finish rewardingly long. This is exclusively the parcel in Les Loachausses, but that will change in 2022 when the vineyard trades amongst the Gros family to minimise the impact of estate taxes.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
Ultra-limited and first come, first served! Anne Gros took over her father’s winery (Domaine François Gros) in the late 1980s, and today, she is quite simply one of the top winemakers in Burgundy, with a cult-like following. We are seriously blessed today with a beautiful allocation of the newest releases from one of the finest vintages I have tasted, including the rare Richebourg, two of the collectible Le Grand Maupertui Grand Cru (what we will call the “filet mignon” of the large Clos Vougeot vineyard), and the high-scoring, terrifically complex, and layered Echezeaux. For fans of Gros (and they are legion), this should make your heart race! Click quick, these are going to go fast!
About the Producer
Anne Gros took over her families winery in the late 1980's but their family lineage spans all the way back to 1830's. The land holdings have been split among the family members for many generations, totaling four separate wineries connected to the Gros family. What started off as 3 ha has turned into 6.5 ha across nine appellations including some very prestigious Grand Cru vineyards. As a woman winegrower, Anne knew how to prove herself and convince all who doubted of her ability to manage a domaine. She showed that she had not only the muscle but also the brains to make her family domaine one of the greatest domaines of Burgundy. The Echzeauc Grand Cru bottles comes from 29 year old vines in the liu dit Les Loachausses.
