Domaine des Perdrix
Le Domaine des Perdrix was not a renowned estate until the Devillard family took its management in 1996. Robert Parker says about this acquisition that it proves the existence of undiscovered great quality terroirs among the Grands Terroirs of Côte de Nuits. The quality of the vineyards their rigorous management and vinification have established the Domaine des Perdrix as a renowned Domaine one of the best among the Grands Vins de Bourgogne.
Description
Pretty dark ruby colour, shinny. The nose is powerful, opening on spices notes (nutmeg, cinnamon) and then dark fruits (blackcurrant, blueberry). Beautiful complexity. On the palate, the wine is powerful and dense. 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. This powerful wine will require some time before expressing its full potential.
Food Pairing
This beautiful and young Echezeaux 2014 will perfectly pair with game birds (roasted quail, partridge in a juniper berries) and dessert as pears poached in red wine.
