Drouhin’s 2005 Grands-Echezeaux smells of black raspberry, wood smoke and cocoa powder, exhibits a tight, tart black raspberry fruit concentration underlain by charred meat and wet stone on the palate, and a vigorous, bright, intensely smoky, spicy finish. The vivid fresh raspberry and cherry character makes for a fascinating and alluring counterpoint to the wine’s lush, creamy texture and expansive palate presence. The tannins are ample yet unobtrusive. I would count on this being worth retaining in one’s cellar for 15 or more years.

Meaty, earthy aromas and flavors, with accents of cherry and berry, are followed by a dry, firmly structured finish. Though ripe and classy, this has completely shut down.
