Note di degustazione
The Grands Echezeaux 2015 is for me wine of the vintage at Domaine du Clos Frantin – the Richebourg and the Chambertin might be bigger and better .. but the level of vibrant energy in this wine is simply outstanding. The nose is a bit closed due to a slight reduction, but underneath a vibrant and very energetic floral red fruit is exploding. On the palate layers of juicy and energetic red fruit – so vibrant – with an almost electric tension. The fruit also have a silky generosity … in that way a classic Grands Echezeaux … what a mignificent wine. This is the top pick of the range at Bichot in 2015 – in my view. Jun 2016, www.winehog.org

(from a .4 ha parcel). Here the nose is relatively similar to that of the Echézeaux but with more evident floral elements. There is excellent concentration to the sappy big-bodied flavors that possess better verve on the firm and clearly built-to-age finish where the only nit is a hint of warmth. Impressive but patience required. Dec 2016, www.burghound.com
The 2015 Grand Echezeaux Grand Cru has a little more horsepower on the nose vis-a-vis the Echezeaux, with copious red cherries, kirsch, blueberry and hints of violets coming through with aeration. The palate is smooth and sensual on the entry, quite plush in style but with very well-judged acidity. With impressive tension from start to finish, this is a Grands Echezeaux with the class of some of the more illustrious practitioners of this vineyard and it should easily age over the next 20-25 years without problem.
