FAIVELEY
Echezeaux Grand cru 2011
- 96 points -

Sourced from a single parcel in the lieu dit of En Orveaux, this is a smart wine that’s given the appropriate amount of new oak (70%). It’s very vivid, almost energetic, with plush, yet focused flavours of Asian spices, fresh raspberries, redcurrants and pomegranate-like acidity. 2016-25
