Bourchard Pere et Fils, Echezeaux 2014

By

The Echezeaux 2014 from Bouchard Pere et Fils is an focused and slightly understated wine. The nose offer cool red fruit brought forward by a nice filigree minerality and a lovely collection of Vosne spices. On the palate precise and detailed with a fine core of fruit on the midpalate .. its long and quite intense . but not a big and weighty Echezeaux. This is refined and focused effort .. need time to unfold.
