The 2014 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a very composed bouquet, conservative at first but opening nicely in the glass, here a mixture of red and dark fruit with an undertow of mineralité. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin. There is still some oak to be absorbed towards the finish, but it is very harmonious, silky smooth with good depth on the finish. This has great potential - a classy Echézeaux.
Medium deep colour, lively fruit, perhaps a bit plummy. Backbone of acidity, some tannins, some latent power. Others have more finesse. The cream comes from the oak
