Note di degustazione
The 2015 Echézeaux Grand Cru displays a thick veneer of new oak on the nose that obscures the terroir expression at the moment. There is also a touch of reduction. The palate is medium-bodied with gritty tannin, masculine and obdurate, grippy but lacking a countervailing grace. Perhaps that grace will return with bottle age, but I am not as optimistic as I was when tasting from barrel. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.

Tasted blind, the 2015 Echezeaux Grand Cru reprised its somewhat lackluster performance earlier this year, offering up a bouquet of cassis, coffee grounds, soil and new oak, followed by a full-bodied palate that's somewhat firm and compact, without much flesh to cloak its structural bones.
Powerful black-pepper aroma (unusual in Burgundy) with a drying finish. I think the Chaumes is probably better value. (JR)

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.
