Estimate
Cherry and currant aromas gain depth on the palate from the spice and mineral elements. Elegant, racy and long, this gets support courtesy of the dense, dusty tannins.
The palate is medium-bodied with supple, ripe tannins, very good density, backward compared to Drouhin’s other 2013s, with density and presence on the finish. This is a Grands Echezeaux demanding to be taken seriously.
... gorgeously spicy aromas of black cherry, violet, plum, pomegranate liqueur and sandalwood scents... sensational density and power... overtly muscular big-bodied flavors... hugely long and explosive finish.
