The 2022 Louis Jadot Echézeaux Grand Cru is a distinguished Côte de Nuits Pinot Noir from the celebrated Echézeaux vineyard near Vosne-Romanée. The nose is highly perfumed, showing strawberry, sweet cherry and raspberry with rose petals, lavender, exotic spice, smoke and subtle earthy notes, combining the generous fruit of 2022 with classic Burgundy detail.
On the palate, it is full-bodied and layered with concentrated red fruit, fresh acidity and fine, powdery tannins. Cherry and strawberry are joined by pepper, spice and mineral notes, leading to a long, expansive and savoury finish. The wine is matured for approximately 18 months in oak barrels, building structure for extended bottle development.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great choice for Burgundy collectors who enjoy Grand Cru Pinot Noir with perfume, depth and serious ageing potential. The 2022 is still youthful, with published drinking windows extending from around 2029 to 2050. Pair with roast duck, beef bourguignon, lamb, game, mushroom dishes or mature cheeses.
