Note di degustazione
(the crop level here was reportedly barely ten hectoliters per hectare): Deep red-ruby. Purple fruits and pepper on the refined but very reticent nose. Very dry and firm, with its boysenberry, blackberry and spice flavors showing modest flesh. Finishes with substantial tongue-coating tannins. One can clearly appreciate the terroir here--and it's a distinctly Chambolle style of Echézeaux--but will this savory wine ever really expand and gain in pliancy?

Cask sample. Used to be called just Échezeaux. 0.8 ha and only three barrels because of the frost. I wondered if there was very slight TCA here but the sample was sealed with Diam. Winemaker Jérôme Flous says I am probably tasting the stress as this parcel was badly frosted. Light to mid cherry red. A little bit dry on the palate, a bit lean. Amazing they could produce anything good after the frost like this. (JH)
