The 2021 Domaine Faiveley Échézeaux En Orveaux Grand Cru is a prestigious Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy’s most sought-after Grand Cru vineyards. Sourced from the prized En Orveaux parcel, situated at the upper edge of Échézeaux near Musigny, this wine combines the power and structure of Vosne-Romanée with remarkable finesse and aromatic complexity.
The nose is elegant and deeply expressive, revealing aromas of black cherry, wild raspberry and violet layered with notes of rose petal, exotic spice, forest floor and subtle oak. On the palate, it is concentrated yet beautifully refined, with vibrant acidity, silky tannins and exceptional purity of fruit. Layers of red and dark berries are complemented by mineral and savoury nuances, leading to a long, precise and beautifully balanced finish.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is an exceptional Grand Cru Burgundy for collectors and serious Pinot Noir enthusiasts. The En Orveaux parcel consistently delivers wines of both elegance and longevity, making it a standout expression of Échézeaux. Pair with roast duck, game birds, beef Wellington or truffle-infused mushroom dishes. While impressive with decanting today, this wine will continue to evolve gracefully over the next 15–25 years.
