Note di degustazione
The 2017 Echézeaux Grand Cru is far less strict than the previous bottle I tasted at the Domaine. This offers plenty of fruit on the nose, plush for the vintage with copious kirsch, Morello cherries and orange pith scents. Sensual and alluring. Just a hint of green olive lurks in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with finely-chiseled tannins, still plush with a judicious sprinkling of black pepper on the finish. This is a very impressive showing with a disarming persistence in the mouth. Tasted at Maison de Colombier in Beaune.

The 2017 Echézeaux Grand Cru, which contains 20% whole bunch, has a very perfumed and floral bouquet, wilted rose petals infusing the vibrant red berry fruit and a touch of sous-bois in the background. The palate is medium-bodied and quite "strict" in style. A structured and slightly hard Echézeaux at the moment that will require several years to soften. Patience required.
The 2017 Echezeaux Grand Cru is still very open and expressive despite its recent bottling, bursting from the glass with aromas of smoky cherries, ripe berries, orange rind, dark chocolate and espresso roast. On the palate, it's full-bodied, textural and enveloping, with powdery tannins, lively acids and an ample core of fruit, concluding with a long and perfumed finish.
