Joseph Drouhin Grandes Echezeaux 2015 (750ML)

98 JS / 94-96 WA

Mind-blowing aromas of cherries that have a smoke and spice undertone. Full body. Fruit intensity is phenomenal, expanding and filling your mouth. Unique wine this vintage. Drink in 2022 but already so impressive. Jams Suckling

The 2015 Grands Echezeaux Grand Cru was a little more reduced on the nose than the Echezeaux at this early stage, though there appears to be great power and intensity waiting to unfurl. The palate is medium-bodied, intense with a very silky texture belying the backbone underneath. This is more masculine, perhaps even more austere than the Echézeaux, but it is beautifully balanced with a very long tail on the finish. There is ambition locked into this nascent Grand Cru.
