Echézeaux Grand Cru Domaine de Clos Frantin 2017 is an exceptional Burgundy with finesse, depth, and complexity. This vintage showcases the elegance of Pinot Noir from one of Vosne-Romanée’s most esteemed terroirs. The wine is crafted with meticulous care by Domaine de Clos Frantin, a jewel of Maison Albert Bichot.

The vineyard’s limestone-rich soil and ideal exposure create a wine of remarkable structure and intensity. Aged in French oak barrels, this Echézeaux develops a perfect balance of power and refinement. The 2017 vintage benefitted from a warm growing season, producing grapes with excellent ripeness and concentration. The result is a wine of exquisite purity, expressing its terroir with precision.

The nose is deeply aromatic, with layers of ripe red cherries, wild strawberries, and blackcurrants. Subtle notes of violets, dried rose petals, and earthy undertones add complexity. Gentle hints of sweet spice, vanilla, and a touch of smokiness from oak ageing enhance its elegance.

On the palate, this Grand Cru delivers a harmonious blend of fruit intensity, minerality, and silky tannins. Juicy raspberry and black cherry flavours intertwine with nuances of liquorice, clove, and forest floor. A fresh acidity lifts the wine, while the fine-grained tannins provide structure and ageing potential. The finish is long, lingering with echoes of spice, dark berries, and a touch of savoury depth.

This vintage is already approachable but will reward cellaring for a decade or more. Decant to reveal its full complexity. Pair it with game, duck, or fine aged cheeses to enhance its depth.

Echézeaux Grand Cru Domaine de Clos Frantin 2017 is a stunning expression of Burgundy’s heritage. A must-have for collectors and connoisseurs.
