Black Cherry, Asian Spice, Crushed Violets, and Majestic Echezeaux Grand Cru Elegance

The 2022 Jacques Cacheux Echezeaux Grand Cru is a majestic, velvet-textured Pinot Noir that exemplifies the power and perfume of this legendary Côte de Nuits terroir. Situated in the commune of Flagey-Echézeaux, just above the iconic Clos de Vougeot, these Grand Cru soils yield wines of extraordinary depth. Crafted by Patrice Cacheux with his signature destemmed, fruit-forward, and generously oaked style, this 2022 vintage boasts soaring aromas of dark cherries, wild raspberries, crushed violets, Asian spices, and toasted sandalwood. On the palate, it is full-bodied, rich, and plush, framed by seamlessly integrated silky tannins and a profoundly long, elegant finish that speaks to its Grand Cru pedigree.

Terroir & Domaine Craft

  • The Echezeaux Grand Cru Terroir: Sourced from the esteemed Echezeaux Grand Cru in the commune of Flagey-Echézeaux. The vineyard's complex, well-draining limestone and clay-marl soils produce Pinot Noir of immense aromatic complexity, famously fusing structural power with exotic floral elegance and profound spicy depth.
  • Voluptuous Winemaking Style: Patrice Cacheux is celebrated for a rich, modern, and unapologetically hedonistic approach to Burgundy. The grapes are 100% destemmed to ensure silky, supple tannins and unhindered fruit purity. The wine is then matured in 100% new French oak barrels, lending it a polished, luxurious texture and exotic toasted spice notes that integrate flawlessly with cellar aging. It is bottled unfined and unfiltered.

Highlights

  • 100% Pinot Noir from the legendary Echezeaux Grand Cru in Flagey-Echézeaux.
  • The exceptional 2022 vintage offers profound concentration, dark berry fruit, and vibrant freshness.
  • Crafted by Patrice Cacheux in a plush, fully destemmed, and luxurious 100% new oak style; built for 15–20+ years of aging.

Tasting Notes

  • Appearance: Deep, luminous ruby-purple with a bright magenta rim.
  • Nose: Intensely aromatic and seductive. It opens with luxurious notes of black cherry, ripe raspberry, and cassis, interwoven with crushed violets, Asian five-spice, sandalwood, and dark chocolate.
  • Palate: Dry, full-bodied, and enveloping. The entry is voluptuous and sweet-fruited, gliding across the palate with a velvet-like texture. Fine, polished tannins and vibrant natural acidity provide seamless structure, driving into a long, spicy, and elegantly perfumed finish.

Serving Suggestion

  • Temperature: Serve at 16–18°C in large-bowled Burgundy glasses to allow the oak and intense aromatics to harmonize.
  • Decanting: A 1-to-2 hour decant is highly recommended if opening in its youth to allow the structure to soften. Best enjoyed from 2030 through 2045+.
  • Western Pairing: Roasted duck breast with cherry reduction, seared venison loin, wild mushroom risotto, or roasted guinea fowl.
  • Asian Pairing: Peking duck, soy-sauce braised pork belly, Cantonese roast goose, or tender Mongolian beef.
