Aromas of cassis, cherries, licorice, spices and menthol introduce this wine, a rich, full-bodied, layered wine that's velvety and complete, with a gourmand, generous profile that typifies the contemporary Remoissenet style. It's an inviting, demonstrative Echezeaux that has turned out very well.

Domaine Baron Thenard is a renowned producer of Grands Echezeaux Grand Cru wines. The estate has a rich history dating back to the 18th century when it was founded by the Baron Gaspard Thenard. Today, the estate is run by the Baron's descendants who continue to produce some of the finest wines in the region.

The Grands Echezeaux Grand Cru is a red wine made from Pinot Noir grapes grown in the Grands Echezeaux vineyard. The vineyard is located in the heart of the Cote de Nuits region of Burgundy and is known for producing some of the most complex and elegant wines in the world.

The wine is produced using traditional methods, with the grapes being hand-picked and sorted before being fermented in oak barrels. The wine is then aged in oak barrels for up to 18 months before being bottled.

The Grands Echezeaux Grand Cru is a full-bodied wine with a deep ruby colour and complex aromas of black cherry, blackcurrant, and spice. On the palate, the wine is rich and velvety with flavours of dark fruit, vanilla, and oak. The wine has a long, smooth finish with a hint of tannin.

This wine is best enjoyed with rich, hearty dishes such as beef or game. It can also be paired with strong cheeses such as Roquefort or Stilton.

Overall, the Grands Echezeaux Grand Cru from Domaine Baron Thenard is a truly exceptional wine that showcases the best of Burgundy's winemaking traditions. Its complex flavours and aromas make it a favourite among wine enthusiasts and collectors alike.

The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.
