The 2022 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a vivid, bright bouquet with perfumed, very floral red berry fruit and touches of white flowers filtering through with time in the glass. Quite classic in style. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, slightly tarry black and red fruit, hints of black pepper and graphite towards a complex, engaging finish. Superb.
A ripe yet cool nose combines a plethora of spice and floral elements with those of plum, exotic tea and dark currant. The moderately dense and caressing medium weight flavors display focused power on the hugely long, balanced and strikingly complex finale. This is a seriously good Ech with the development potential to match.
Mid purple colour. An intriguing nose, almost something vegetal. A rougher edge to the fruit in the mouth, from the barrel. Rich sweet strawberry fruit in between. From another barrel, softer, a little more volume, and some gas as this barrel had not been sampled for a while. In short, the Echezeaux was in a slightly grumpy mood and may very well improve on this performance after further elevage. Drink from 2032-2040.
