Echezeaux 2009 Grand Cru - Frederic Magnien

A pure marvel to drink now or in 20 years.

For once a Burgundy offers a simple name, no sub-climate or little name of a single plot, thank you to Maison Magnien for that.

The wines of this producer are textbook cases. Perfect for understanding the climates of Burgundy. This Echezeaux is no exception. The wine is concentrated, round and fruity. We can feel a very light, very well-proportioned barrel in the background.

If you want to understand why the great vintages of the Côte de Nuits are so sought after, taste this wine.

A light aeration period of one hour before tasting will allow it to express itself at its best.
