RATINGS

98Robert M. Parker Jr.

The 1990 Grands Echezeaux offers abundant black raspberry and black cherry elements in its smokey, exotic nose as well as a long, opulent, fleshy finish.

94Wine Spectator

Smooth and polished, with jammy raspberry notes adding complexity and richness to the basic plum and currant flavors. Feels soft and generous, but it has the intensity and length to want cellaring...

94Burghound.com

... offers fantastically rich yet not excessively ripe fruit and flavors with excellent density, concentration and superb length. The breadth of flavors and incredible texture is outstanding and the wine offers stunning overall quality.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, Grand Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
