To the Eye: A pure bright deep red, truly stunning. Clear and limpid, the shifting colour nuances of the Grands Echezeaux often vary, though generally tending towards fairly dark shades of garnet or violet-purple: a colour that holds the eye.
To the Nose: With age, the palette tends towards pepper and musk, animal pelts, leather and spices, prunes. Sometimes the bouquet hints at scents of woodland undergrowth, moss, mushrooms, damp earth, game. Fruit preserved in alcohol and mulberries round off this range of aromas.
In the Mouth:Peaceful and dreamy, serene with age, subtle and refined, this wine fully reveals the complex nature of a really good Burgundy. The structure is outstanding: solid, full-bodied, rich and exceptionally harmonious. It is wholly appropriate for the qualification Great to precede Echezeaux in the name Grands-Echezeaux.
