FAIVELEY

Echezeaux "En Orveaux" Grand Cru 2017

A more floral-inflected nose reflects plenty of spice, herbal tea and sandalwood influences on the ripe aromas of plum and black cherry liqueur. The rich, intense and delineated medium-bodied flavors also display a taut muscularity as well as good power while delivering fine persistence on the youthfully austere, chiseled and linear finish. This is an Echézeaux of finesse and minerality.

About Burghound.com

Burghound.com is the result of a nearly lifelong passion for the wines of Burgundy. For more than 30 years, I have been collecting the wines and visiting the region. Each year I spend nearly five months visiting, researching, tasting, exploring and evaluating. Burgundy is my obsession really. Expanding on my coverage of the coveted pinot noir grape, each issue provides continuous coverage of both Oregon and California pinot noir, with rotating coverage of Champagne and occasional special reports from other pinot producing regions.
