"The 2002 Mugneret Echézeaux is superb, soaring from the glass in a blaze of black raspberries, dark berries, violets, a hint of mint, chocolate, soil tones, smoke and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, deep and concentrated in the mid-palate, with the Mugneret hallmark elegance, excellent focus, and outstanding length and grip on the finish. This has the balance to age gracefully for fifty years, but should begin to really hit on all cylinders about the age of ten. It is a stunning bottle of Echézeaux."
