Reviews & Scores
A more restrained if somewhat riper nose is comprised by notes of dark berry fruit liqueur and a wonderful range of spice and floral elements, all of which is trimmed in enough wood to notice. Here too the medium weight plus flavors possess a beguiling mouthfeel thanks to the generous sap that helps to buffer the firm tannins shaping the lengthy and balanced finale. This moderately austere effort should amply reward extended cellaring. - BH

The 2019 Echezeaux Grand Cru was showing beautifully when I visited, wafting from the glass with aromas of rose petals, wild berries, plums, orange peel, spices, loamy soil and espresso roast. Full-bodied, velvety and enveloping, it's sumptuous and gourmand, with exquisitely refined tannins, lively acids and a seamless, effortless profile. It will be fascinating to compare and contrast the finer-boned 2019 with the more muscular 2018 in the fullness of time. (WK) - WA

The 2019 Echézeaux Grand Cru is raised in about 75% new oak. It has a high-toned bouquet lent a light spiciness by the contribution of 15% whole cluster. Light flinty aromas develop with aeration, followed later by more briny aromas. This is quite mercurial in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with a fresh opening, and very elegant and silky in mouthfeel; the stem contribution is very discreet. The wine fans out wonderfully on the finish but retains its aristocratic air. Excellent. (NM) - VM

The Mugneret-Gibourg holdings in Echézeaux are in two, roughly equal-sized parcels, both with old vines; one in Rouges du Bas on the slope and the other in Quartier de Nuits. The blend of the two sites has resulted in an exquisite wine, with aromas of scented damson plums and spice. There is a lovely richness and depth on the palate, with tannins so fine-grained that the texture is truly seamless. (CC) - DC
