2022 Echezeaux Les Treux Vieilles Vignes

Subtle wood frames an exuberantly spicy combination of black cherry, dark currant and raspberry liqueur laced with pretty floral nuances that include lavender and violet. Like the Bas de Combe there is a super-sleek mouthfeel to the velvety, naturally sweet and highly seductive yet solidly powerful and concentrated larger-bodied flavors that display excellent length on the firm and balanced finale. This is certainly built to repay extended keeping but there is sufficient sap that it could be reasonably enjoyed after only 5 to 7 years of bottle aging.
