“A blend of refinement and intensity… The Phoenix of these vineyards!”

“This is the very heart of the Grand Cru. With an intense, subtly fragrant nose, it has benefited from carefully selected aging that blends seamlessly with the wine’s components. It displays great finesse and a delicacy that goes far beyond the archetype of Échezeaux.” (The Bettane + Desseauve Guide)

Wine rated 97/100

Rated estate (2021 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the wine:

Here we are at the heart of the Grand Cru. With an intense, subtly fragrant nose, it has benefited from carefully selected aging that blends seamlessly with the wine’s components. It displays great finesse and a delicacy that far surpasses the archetypal Échezeaux.

About the estate:

Operated by the Devillard family—which also owns Château de Chamirey in Mercurey—the vineyard is situated on remarkable terroirs in the southern part of the Côte de Nuits, and its grapes are vinified in the spirit of modern wines, seeking high ripeness and deep, voluptuous textures. The results have been impressive in recent years, even at the commune level, with wines featuring very refined juices—a departure from the more robust styles we were accustomed to. The 2018 vintage has captured all its possible richness here; these will be wines suitable for aging, and indeed, the Nuits and Échezeaux will age exceptionally well. There is also a delightful red Burgundy.
