Échézeaux
The Echézeaux of Henri Jayer was the pride of the domaine owned parcels. He notes that the wines of this vineyard are not consistent throughout the appellation, which is divided into 11 heterogeneous parcels. Jayer believed fervently that " Les Cruots ou Vignes Blanches " (where his old vine Echézeaux was located) was the best terroir of the appellation. Here thin clay soils provide a meager anchor for the vine, while the parcels upslope from here have sandier soils that do not give the same structure to the wines. The exposition is due east and there are many pebbles and a good mix of marl and limestone. Through 1993 the Echézeaux produced by Henri Jayer is from fruit exclusively from Les Cruots, while other members of the Jayer family also have vines in the climat known as Les Treux.
