Domaine Robert Sirugue, Grands Echezeaux 1978

By Steen Öhman December 9, 2014

The Grands Echezeaux 1978 from Sirugue is a delightful mature wine … in perfect condition and taken at the right moment. In the bouquet sweet red fruit, sous-bois, truffle – spiced with a orange infused minerality … classic 1978 nose. On the palate layers of fine pure delicate red fruit .. not a big wine, but medium weight and very balanced with a lovely energy and nerve. The acidity is vibrant and the fruit is still juicy and vibrant. A lovely mature Grands Ecehezeaux – a treat.
