ABOUT THE WINE

The quality of the vineyards, their rigorous management and vinification have established the Domaine des Perdrix as a renowned Domaine.

TASTING NOTES
One of the finest villages for red Burgundy, Echezeaux provides muscular fruit that’s riper, but still very elegant. Candied red cherries and fresh raspberries along with shiitake mushrooms and toasty vanilla and cinnamon coming from the new French oak barrel ageing. A wine which will age gracefully.

FOOD PAIRING
Wood-fire roasted pigeon or beef bavette steak with creamed parsnips and warm cherry compote.

FRIARWOOD SAYS
Needs time to reveal its potential and perfumes of fruits and spices which will get stronger and stronger with maturation. Tannins are firm but ripe and silky.
