Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair, Echezeaux 2014

The Echezeaux is one of my favorites of the Liger-Belair lineup – made from old vines in the climates Cruots, Champs Traversin and a small plot in Clos St. Denis. The 2014 edition of the Echezeaux is slightly backward at this stage – with a slight reduction on the nose. The bouquet is nevertheless offering layers of juicy red and dark fruits – notes of strawberries, boysenberries, pomegranate – energized by the filigree minerality and fresh acidity. On the palate layers rich and very juicy fruit … brought forward by the multidimensional filigree minerality. The acidity is fresh rather than powerful – a very balanced and refined wine witht lovely depth and length. A sensual wine in the making.
