Echezeaux En Orveaux Bouchard Père et Fils

This Côte de Nuits Grand Cru appellation adjoins to the south the famous Clos de Vougeot. Belonging to the commune of Flagey-Echezeaux, whose town centre is situated on the plain, the vineyard of Echézeaux blossoms on the hillside and
produces powerful wines full of sappiness, with rich aromas of undergrowth, like this fine bottle signed Bouchard Père & Fils. Its keeping potential is remarkable.
