The Lamarche Echézeaux comes from three lieux-dits: Les Cruots ou Vignes, Blanches Clos-Saint-Denis, and Les Champs Traversins. Altogether these parcels make up about 1.32 hectares and the vines are about 30-years-old on average. Nicole Lamarche works with very low yields here, which, alongside the Domaine’s delicate extraction, results in a supremely elegant expression of this terroir. This is another sensual, silky Echézeaux from the Lamarche cousins—fabulous perfume and detail along with loads of juicy raspberry and spices. It never veers outside the confines of Larmarche’s signature of purity and elegance. Aged entirely in used oak, there’s more breadth here than the Les Chaumes—as one might expect—yet the same sense of energy and floral prettiness.
