Note di degustazione
The 2017 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a backward, stubborn, slightly earthy nose that opens with aeration to offer some redeeming floral scents of rose petal and peony. The palate is medium-bodied with a tight opening, rather stringy tannins and fine acidity, and shows a little attenuation toward the austere finish. Hmm... I was expecting more given its excellent showing from barrel. Maybe it’s just closing down. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting.

Lightish crimson. Tangy, wild red fruits. Taut and rather light on the palate (seems to be the style of many from this appellation in 2017). Dry, almost chalky texture. Refined, subtle with underlying power that shows more in the length. (JH)
The 2017 Echézeaux Grand Cru comes courtesy of the domaine’s 1.32-hectare parcel in the lieu-dit of Les Champs Traversins. The pretty bouquet of vivacious red fruit, infused with touches of crushed violet, is not powerful or multifaceted compared to the previous two vintages. The palate is very well balanced with seamlessly integrated new oak, fleshy on the midpalate, and displays gentle but insistent grip toward the finish. I admire the gradual build in this Echézeaux, which should drink perfectly well after four or five years. Very fine.

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.
