Echezeaux En Orveaux Grand Cru from Domaine Faiveley comes from a cool, high-lying sector of this famous vineyard. The bouquet is expressive, with dark berries, black cherry and a touch of strawberry framed by exotic spices, incense, peonies and orange zest.

The Great Vertical Tasting: A wine through the mirror of time.

The grape variety: Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir is a refined red grape known for red cherry, raspberry, floral notes, spice and silky tannins. It is most famous in Burgundy but thrives in many cool-climate regions.
It pairs beautifully with duck, roast chicken, mushrooms, salmon, pork and game birds. Its fascination lies in finesse, fragrance and the way it expresses origin.
