David Duband Echezeaux Grand Cru 2018
Suggested Food Pairings:
The quality of David Duband’s wines has steadily advanced since he took over his family’s domaine in 1991. In 1999 he began the move away from conventional farming and achieved organic certification in 2006. In 2005, his friend and business partner, François Feuillet, managed to buy vineyards from Jacky Truchot, which included ideal spots with old-vine parcels in the grand crus, Clos de la Roche and Charmes-Chambertin.
Painters use canvas and paint; David’s medium is limestone, clay, grapes, and oak. His wines transparently demonstrate the slightest differences in each terrior's shade and contour, further revealing each unique nuance of the year and terroir.
Tasting Notes
A broad-shouldered wine offering up aromas of ripe berry fruit, plums, rose petals, orange rind and spices. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, with an expansive attack, a fleshy core of fruit and lively, succulent acids.
Food Pairing
This wine has very good ageing potential and ideally should be paired with delicate meats (such as poultry and veal).
Grape Variety: Pinot Noir
Country: Burgundy - France
