The Echezeaux 2010 is among the best or perhaps the best wine I have tasted from this large grand cru. The 2010 continue to surprise me, as they remain quite open and forward despite the greatness and intensity. The bouquet is currently bursting with Vosne spices and organic red fruit. On the palate layers of organic and airy fruit … almost silky textured with a tremendous intensity lurking underneath the charming appearance. Not a muscular wine .. but the refined and filigree minerality and the weighty layered fruit does add up to a very intense and long wine .. but still very harmonious and delicate. A magnificent Echezeaux .. outstanding.

But they have some singular qualities that at best are uniquely fresh red Burgundies, with a visible and even flamboyant expression of their terroirs. They do have ...
