Wineepedia entry of the day - Flagey-Echezeaux

Your weekly dose of Wineepedia stuff is back with a little piece on Flagey-Echezeaux, the only village in Burgundy where the first name gets short shrift. I am backlogged and please comment if I am missing any producers you think are worthy.

Talk more about rene engal.

I accidentally bought three bottles of '00 'les Brulees'. The mistake i have ever made in the world of wine. really, its good stuff.

Geez Lyle, you're pretty hard on 2003! You give '07, '06, '01, '00, '98 and '95 the 'Notable' vintage tag, but no '03? Cold, brother. Cold!

Iuli,

All I know about Engel is I love the rustic, tannic, burly, wild, sauvage authenticity of the wines.

Peter H,

I detest '03 except specific wines. So I cannot reccomend i!

"This area is just south of the great Vosne-Romanee and shares many of the same qualities with its neighbor up north"

This is incorrect. Ech / Grand Ech vineyards are to the north of Vosne Romanee
