Located above the village of Flagey-Échezeaux, the Grand Cru “Grands-Échezeaux” extends on the hillside between the Premiers Crus of Vosne-Romanée and the Clos Vougeot.
Its name derives from “chesaux”, a word of Gallo-Roman origin meaning a group of dwellings, presumably referring to an ancient hamlet.
Our two plots are planted on calcareous brown soils, with a significant presence of clay and the proximity of a slab of rock that is also found in the upper part of the Clos Vougeot.

Food/wine pairing
Taste this wine with finely prepared roasted or stewed meats (beef, lamb, pork, game, duck), or with medium to mature cheeses.
Recipe suggestion: crusted beef tenderloin with morels and red wine sauce
