The 2022 Domaine Henri Jouan Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Échézeaux is a Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy's most prestigious red wine villages. Produced by Domaine Henri Jouan, a long-established family estate based in Morey-Saint-Denis, the wine reflects the domaine's traditional approach to winemaking and its reputation for producing structured, age-worthy wines from the Côte de Nuits. The Aux Échézeaux lieu-dit is located in the northern sector of Gevrey-Chambertin, where limestone and clay soils provide ideal conditions for Pinot Noir. Gevrey-Chambertin is often regarded as the most powerful of the great Côte de Nuits villages, producing wines that combine concentration and structure with the aromatic complexity that defines fine Burgundy. The warm and balanced 2022 vintage delivered excellent fruit maturity while preserving freshness and vineyard character. The wine opens with aromas of black cherry, wild raspberry and red plum, layered with notes of violet, forest floor, baking spice and subtle earthy nuances. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, with a concentrated core of red and dark fruit supported by vibrant acidity and finely structured tannins. The wine combines youthful energy with notable depth, while a mineral backbone carries through to a long and persistent finish. Domaine Henri Jouan has developed a loyal following among Burgundy enthusiasts for its traditional style and ability to produce wines that evolve beautifully with bottle age. Gevrey-Chambertin remains one of the most sought-after village appellations in Burgundy, prized for wines that offer both early charm and the capacity for long-term development. Aux Échézeaux is a particularly attractive expression of the appellation, balancing Gevrey's hallmark structure with finesse and aromatic lift |
