Ghislain Kohut, an emerging star in Burgundy, crafts wines with a focus on precision and terroir expression. His Echezeaux Grand Cru 2019 is a stunning example of Pinot Noir from one of the most prestigious Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte de Nuits. Echezeaux, located in the Flagey-Echézeaux commune, is known for producing powerful yet elegant wines, with a balance of depth, structure, and finesse. The 2019 vintage, marked by ideal growing conditions, has given this wine remarkable concentration, complexity, and aging potential.

Appearance: Deep ruby red with a brilliant hue, showcasing its youth and intensity.

Aroma: The nose is rich and layered, with aromas of ripe black cherry, dark raspberry, and plum, interwoven with earthy notes of forest floor, truffle, and a touch of leather. Subtle hints of rose petals, spices like clove and cinnamon, and a touch of oak give further complexity.

Taste: On the palate, this Pinot Noir is full-bodied and elegant, with flavors of ripe red and dark berries such as cherry and blackberry. There are underlying earthy tones, alongside savoury elements of spice, tobacco, and a hint of cocoa. The tannins are fine and well-integrated, providing structure, while the wine's vibrant acidity keeps it fresh and balanced. The oak is seamlessly integrated, adding texture and depth without overshadowing the fruit.

Finish: The finish is long and sophisticated, with lingering red fruit, spice, and a refined minerality that showcases the wine’s Grand Cru pedigree and aging potential.

Food pairing: This Echezeaux Grand Cru pairs beautifully with rich dishes such as roasted duck, beef tenderloin, or lamb, where the wine’s structure and depth complement the savoury flavours. It also pairs well with mushroom-based dishes like wild mushroom risotto or truffle pasta, as its earthy undertones enhance the complexity of the meal. For cheese, aged Comté or Brie de Meaux are excellent choices to highlight the wine’s elegance and finesse.
