A prestigious Grand Cru for a dreamy moment!
Rated domain Excellent, Robert Parker, ** RVF , 4 stars from Bettane & Desseauve, Excellent from Gault MillauThe Domaine des Perdrix is fortunate to own a superb plot in the best part of this prestigious Grand Cru of the Côte de Nuits. The Upper Echezeaux, covering an area of 1.2 hectares, these vineyards border the Echezeaux plots of the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. A magnificent terroir, producing a wine of great distinction, the result of meticulous work from the vineyard to the cellar, where the patient, lengthy aging process of 18 months in 100% new oak barrels gives it its exceptional finesse. A truly great wine, perfect for enjoying with your holiday meals!

About the estate:
Run by the Devillard family, who also own Château de Chamirey in Mercurey, the vineyard is situated on remarkable terroirs in the southern part of the Côte de Nuits, and its wines are crafted in the spirit of modern winemaking, seeking high grape ripeness and deep, voluptuous textures. The results have been impressive in recent years, even at the village appellation level, with wines featuring very refined juices where we previously found them to be rather robust. The full potential of the 2018 vintage has been captured here; these will be wines for aging, and indeed for very long aging in the case of the Nuits and Échezeaux. There is also a delightful red Burgundy.
