Echézeaux Grand Cru in Hong Kong

A Grand Cru from the heart of the Côte de Nuits – the Echézeaux stands for what Burgundy can do on its best sites: depth, elegance, and a minerality that lingers for a long time.

Louis Jadot is one of the most famous négociant houses of the Côte d'Or. Based in Beaune since 1859, the house works with grapes from the most significant sites in Burgundy – including this Echézeaux, whose calcareous soils and southeastern orientation offer the Pinot Noir extraordinary ripening conditions.

In the glass, a deep red Burgundy with violet reflections appears. The nose opens with black cherry, cassis, and a hint of dried violets, underpinned by fine notes of cedar wood and undergrowth. On the palate, it presents itself as velvety with silky tannins, lively acidity structure, and a mineral, long-lasting finesse that clearly reflects the typical character of the site.

Serving temperature: 16–18 °C. Pairs well with duck breast with cherries, wild boar loin, or a mature Époisses.
