With its ripe, deep, plummy fruit, floral notes and abundant spice accents, the 2022 Echézeaux from Grivot is among the top wines in this cellar. The texture is rich and velvety; the finish stretches on for minutes. The grapes are from a 0.84-hectare parcel in Cruots planted in 1954. Grivot destems the grapes and ferments gently, with more pumping exclusively after the beginning of fermentation. This vintage will begin to open in five to seven years and should drink well for at least another 30.

Well-marked by toasty oak and vanilla aromas and flavors, this red also features cherry, blackberry, raspberry, earth and iron notes. Dense and robust, with a sense of elegance, fine purity, balance and length, yet there's a feeling that this has more to give with some evolution in the bottle.
