Tasting Notes | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Here the nose is relatively similar to that of the Echézeaux but with more evident floral elements. There is excellent concentration to the sappy big-bodied flavors that possess better verve on the firm and clearly built-to-age finish where the only nit is a hint of warmth. Impressive but patience required. Score: 92 - 94 Allen Meadows, Burghound Maturity: 2030+ 15 January 2017 |

The 2015 Grand Echézeaux Grand Cru has a little more horsepower on the nose vis-à-vis the Echézeaux, with copious red cherries, kirsch, blueberry and hints of violets coming through with aeration. The palate is smooth and sensual on the entry, quite plush in style but with very well-judged acidity. With impressive tension from start to finish, this is a Grands Echézeaux with the class of some of the more illustrious practitioners of this vineyard and it should easily age over the next 20-25 years without problem. Score: 94 - 96 Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2020-2045 30 December 2016 |
