Vintage Character The 2022 vintage in Burgundy delivered wines of impressive ripeness and concentration, thanks to a warm, sunny growing season punctuated by timely rainfall that preserved freshness and balance. Domaine Faiveley Echezeaux En Orveaux Grand Cru 2022, awarded 94 points by Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, exemplifies the expressive character of this exceptional year. Aromas of wild raspberry, Morello cherry, and violets mingle with exotic spice, subtle forest floor, and refined oak nuances.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing On the palate, the wine is both powerful and graceful, featuring silken tannins, vibrant acidity, and a pronounced mineral core derived from the limestone-rich soils of the En Orveaux climat. The finish is persistent, weaving together red fruit, spice, and earthy undertones. This Grand Cru pairs beautifully with classic French dishes such as duck breast with cherry sauce and aged Comté cheese, accentuating its depth and complexity.
