"Readers who want to check out the vintage at DRC should probably start with the 2012 Échézeaux, a wine that is wonderfully expressive today, although naturally very young. Still, the depth of the fruit and overall sense of pliancy add to an impression of exuberance that is hard to resist. Hints of tobacco, mint, new leather and dried herbs add nuance over time, but 2012 Échézeaux is above all else a wine of textural radiance and pure beauty."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Grands-Echezeaux is a Grand Cru near Vosne-Romanee in Burgundy's Cote de Nuits, producing refined, harmonious Pinot Noir reds that are richer and more structured than neighboring Echezeaux, with silky depth and long aging potential.
