Forey Echezeaux Grand Cru 2014 (1.5L)

93 BH

Note: from the climats of Les Treux and Clos St. Denis
Tasting note: A moderately oaked nose reflects notes of spicy purple fruit, Asian-style tea and plenty of floral characters. There is excellent richness to the relatively broad-shouldered and solidly concentrated flavors that are blessed with an abundance of dry extract that imparts a velvety and suave mouth feel that contrasts markedly with the powerful, rustic and very firm finish that delivers outstanding length. This old school effort is going to require plenty of patience. Drink 2029+ -Allen Meadows, Burghound
