Robert Parker (95)

Regularly one of the standouts of the domaine range, the 2022 Echézeaux Grand Cru (Domaine Louis Jadot) wafts from the glass with aromas of sweet cherries, smoke, spices and espresso roast. Full-bodied, broad and layered, with a rich core of fruit, powdery tannins and succulent acids, it concludes with a pure and expansive finish.

The Famille Gagey bottling of Échezeaux was already sold out and therefore not shown at this tasting. Cask sample.
Bright crimson. Pale rim. Real depth of aroma with some slightly farmyard(!) notes. And then such pretty, sweet fruit on the palate! An intensity not seen in any reds up to now in this tasting of Jadot’s 2022s. Smooth and seductive with real firepower. (JR)

Vinous (96)

The 2022 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a perfumed, very floral bouquet with wilted rose petals and touches of lavender, complementing the vivacious red fruit. It is an archetypal Echézeaux. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins and a fine bead of acidity. It’s quite peppery towards the finish, so you might misconstrue it as containing some whole bunches. Very satisfying complexity on the finish; this is an excellent Eche.

Burghound (94)

A much spicier nose of exotic tea, red currant and dark raspberry is trimmed in more evident though not invasive wood. There is fine richness to the caressing, even seductive, and utterly delicious medium weight plus flavors that terminate in a dusty and moderately austere finale that could also use better depth. At least some patience will be necessary yet this appears to be a wine that could be reasonably approached after only 7 to 8 years.

Jasper Morris (93)

Medium deep colour, with dark flowers on the nose. Coming in the midst of various spectacular grands crus, I find that the Echezeaux has taken the sunshine to a slightly brutal degree, as reflected by maximum ripeness of the fruit along with some tannins that may have been blocked from maturing fully. The yield was lower which is not always the best thing in hot dry years. It is still a sound wine but has missed out on the more delightful side of 2022.
