"I do not know how I managed to not write down from which lieu à dit Jean-Marie Fourrier’s new example of Echézeaux, nor how old the vines are at the present time, but I will make sure I know this information when I return from my next visit to the domaine. In any event, this is a superb version, wafting from the glass in a deep and youthful blend of black cherries, dark berries, espresso, vinesmoke, dark soil tones, incipient notes of the venison to come, fresh herbs and a nice touch of spicy oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and quite reserved in profile, with a lovely core, ripe, firm tannins and excellent focus on the long, balanced and soil-driven finish. A fine bottle of Echézeaux."
