Domaine Des Perdrix - 2020 - Échezeaux Grand Cru - 750 ml.

Subregion: Échezeaux Grand Cru

Domaine des Perdrix Échezeaux Grand Cru is a red Burgundy from the Côte de Nuits that represents concentrated, terroir-driven Pinot Noir. On the nose and palate this cuvée delivers an interplay of intense black and red fruit — think blackcurrant and cherry — layered with savory spice and an undercurrent of earthy nuance. The wine is described as showing power balanced with finesse: muscular enough to stand up to rich, savory dishes yet sculpted and refined in texture and aromatic complexity. Échezeaux’s Grand Cru soils and microclimate yield Pinot Noir with elevation and density, and this bottling leans toward a structured profile, offering firm tannins that promise evolution in bottle. The producer recommends cellar aging for 15–20 years; with that time the tannins will soften and the wine’s tertiary notes — dried fruits, forest floor, and subtle spice — will integrate and deepen. This bottle is an excellent match for duck breast with blackcurrant sauce, roasted or braised red meats, and decadent dishes such as truffle risotto. If you collect classic Côte de Nuits Pinot, this Échezeaux from Domaine des Perdrix is a refined, age-worthy selection that balances immediate presence with long-term potential. Drink it with celebratory or contemplative meals where the wine’s concentrated fruit, spice, and structure can be fully appreciated.
