Tasting notes

A blend from Echezeaux du Dessus and Poulaillères, with a little from the Clos St-Denis sector. 30% whole bunch vinification. Mid crimson in colour. Perfumed like the Suchots but with a little more depth of fruit, then plums and red berries, with good length. Drink from 2030-2037. Tasted Nov 2024.

Medium deep crimson. The nose is a little more backward, so one has to searching for it. Just a sign of extreme youth. The palate offers a delicious quality of middleweight red fruit, with an impeccable bone structure and super balance. A discreet yet really fine grands Echezeaux. Drink from 2032-2040. Tasted Nov 2024.
