Omschrijving
De oogst van 2017 is een succes voor Domaine d'Eugénie en de energieke Michel Mallard, die soepele, expressieve en verleidelijke wijnen levert die trouw zijn aan hun onderliggende appellations. De eerste jaargangen op dit adres waren, eerlijk gezegd, zo eiken en ongeïnspireerd dat serieuze consumenten de wijnen van Domaine d'Eugénie afschreven, maar dat vooroordeel moet nu worden herzien, aangezien de wijnen steeds meer hun aandacht verdienen.
Domaine d'Eugénie heeft de eerste rijen aan wijnstokken in Grands-Echezeaux als je aan komt rijden vanuit Vosne-Romanee. Domaine d'Eugénie heeft hier 0.50 hectare aan wijnstokken ter beschikking met een gemiddelde leeftijd van 25 jaar maar er staan ook nog stokken van 60 jaar oud. De grond bestaat uit een klei/kalksteen combinatie. In 2017 gebruikte Domaine d'Eugénie 60% hele trossen die gerijpt zijn in 70% nieuwe eikenhouten vaten. William Kelley en Neal Martin noemen het een van de meest intense en geconcentreerde Grands-Echezeaux's in jaren.
WEETJE: De wijn ligt in ons geconditioneerde Wine Warehouse en als u de wijn komt afhalen ontvangt u vaak ook nog een mooie korting. U ziet de mogelijke korting direct als u kiest voor Afhalen in de Afreken-pagina. We zitten bijna naast de Rijksweg met volop parkeergelegenheid. Klik hier voor adres.

The 2017 Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru is a great success, unfurling in the glass with aromas of blackberries, wild berries, rich soil tones and espresso roast, framed by a lavish but nicely integrated touch of toasty new oak. On the palate, it's full-bodied, ample and layered, with a generous core of ripe but juicy fruit, concluding with an expansive, saline finish. While this is quite giving and charming by the standards of the appellation, it's the most concentrated wine in the Eugénie portfolio this year, and will likely prove the longest lived.
The 2017 vintage—the eleventh for this new carnation of the erstwhile Domaine Engel—is a success for Domaine d'Eugénie and the energetic Michel Mallard, delivering supple, expressive and seductive wines that are true to their underlying appellations. Early vintages at this address, it's fair to say, were so oaky and uninspired that serious consumers have tended to write off the Domaine d'Eugénie's wines, but that prejudice now needs to be revised, as the wines increasingly merit their attention. Congratulations are due to Mallard and his team for the turnaround they have achieved.

From: 2017 Burgundy: A Modern Classic (Jan 2019)
The 2017 Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru is about 60% whole bunches, matured in around 70% new oak. It has a tightly wound bouquet of dark cherry and iodine-tinged fruit that is very well defined, focused and detailed. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannin, the oak a little too vocal at the moment, perhaps (although I feel the fruit might have been a tad suppressed on the day of my visit). A subtle saline and black olive note emerges toward the tender finish. This is one of the most intense Grands Echézeaux, though it needs more personality to come through.
- By Neal Martin on November 2018
Michel Mallard has overseen the wines at Domaine d’Eugénie since 2006, after François Pinault bought Domaine René Engel following the untimely passing of Philippe Engel. After a tricky start, when the wines were over-oaked and lacked the essence of pinoté, there is now a more hands-off approach in the winery. “We took off some bunches in July as the vines were compensating for being frosted in 2016,” Mallard explained. “We did two green harvests, one in July and one in late August after coming back from holiday. It meant you could take out any damaged and grilled berries the second time. We started the harvest on September 2 and vinified without sulphur, which was only added after the malolactic [as Mallard did last year.] One difference this year is that I filled the barrels from the bottom instead of the top because I felt the wines were delicate and I wanted to reduce their exposure to air. I will rack the wines in January or February.”
Hence, for the first time, instead of tasting directly from barrel, I tasted the 2017s from prepared samples. I usually propose the Grands-Echézeaux as the pick of the bunch, but this year I am smitten by the excellent Clos de Vougeot, whilst the Vosne-Romanée Aux Brûlées matches the Echézeaux pound for pound. There is a rather modern sheen to these wines, which I know puts off the devotees of Philippe Engel’s more rustic but often profound style of wine. These tend to be a little darker in fruit and a touch more confit. Yet I do feel that they are much better than even five or six years ago when, for want of a better expression, they just seemed to lack soul.
