The 2006 Echézeaux Grand Cru marks the maiden vintage of this esteemed wine from Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair, crafted from leased vineyards in the Cruots and Champs Traversin climats. This Pinot Noir offers a complex bouquet of dried flowers, Chinese 5 spice, soy, raspberries, dark berries, and hints of rose petals and peony rose. Some tasters also note rustic, bucolic undertones with mushroom and sous-bois. On the palate, it is full-bodied and fleshy, with abundant spice, gliding like liquid velvet, showcasing good precision and admirable length. It presents dense fruit with excellent midpalate concentration, finely balanced with good minerality and a spicy acidity. Initially firm and tannic, it gracefully opens up to reveal sweet, generous fruit flavors of strawberries and pepper, supported by a dense texture. 【Maiden vintage of Echezeaux from Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair】 Food pairing suggestions: This elegant red Burgundy pairs beautifully with classic dishes such as duck, goose, and various game birds.
