"Good deep red. Black cherry, vanillin oak and flowers on the nose. Fat, sweet and suave; in a distinctly ripe and full style for the vintage (these vines were harvested especially late). Very silky Echezeaux with lovely freshness of fruit and excellent length. The domain's vines are located next to the Poulailleres holding of DRC and get cool air and wind through the Combe d'Orveaux, according to Martin Prieur. "They never rot or show surmaturite even though we harvest late here," he said. An excellent 2004. Prieur added that the malolactic fermentation was early, and that this wine was relatively open throughout its elevage."
