Note di degustazione
The 2016 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a simple raspberry and crushed strawberry scented nose, clean but simple. The palate is medium-bodied with chewy tannin, firm and grippy with the same drying finish exhibited by other 2016s from this vineyard. What you might call a "stunted" Echézeaux that is redeemed by its prettiness. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.

The 2016 Echezeaux Grand Cru was diminished to just 40% of the usual production due to frost. Nicole suggested that the humidity may not have helped. As such, I did feel that this cuvée did not quite convey the same energy as say, Lamarche's Malconsorts or Croix Rameau, as if the terroir had lost its tongue. The palate is still nicely balanced with firm tannin, but it feels a little monotone compared to other cuvées, very conservative on the tobacco-tinged finish. Not bad, but I prefer some of the domaine's premier crus.

Today run by the fourth-generation Nicole Lamarche, this property (previously known as Domaine François Lamarche) is firmly among the best in Burgundy. The Vosne-Romanée estate is most famous for its monopole Grand Cru La Grande Rue.
