The story of Domaine d\u2019Eug\u00e9nie began in 2006, when Fran\u00e7ois Pinault acquired the former Domaine Ren\u00e9 Engel in Vosne-Roman\u00e9e. This marked the beginning of a new chapter for a historic Burgundian wine estate. The Grands \u00c9chezeaux vineyard is located in the C\u00f4te de Nuits, adjacent to the famous \u00c9chezeaux, but constitutes a separate Grand Cru appellation. The wine is made from Pinot Noir. The 2016 vintage demonstrates how the same exceptional terroir can express itself under different weather conditions. The original wooden case contains six bottles from the same vintage.<\/p>\n
