Jean Grivot Echezeaux 2016 (750ML)

95 BH / 94 WS

Tasting note: A deft touch of wood frames a strongly reduced nose. More positively, the velvety, round and utterly seductive large-scaled flavors are brimming with dry extract on the mouth coating and quite serious finish that displays sensational length and stunning complexity. This is a powerful Ech that is also clearly built to age. Note that my rating implicitly assumes that the reduction displayed by the nose will eventually dissipate as it does not show up on the palate. Allen Meadows - Burghound

Pure, succulent cherry, raspberry and floral aromas and flavors are wellmatched to the firm, dense matrix of acidity and tannins. Harmonious and long, with a terrific aftertaste. Best from 2022 through 2043. - Bruce Sanderson, Wine Spectator
