Echézeaux

2008 Comte Liger-Belair Echézeaux

Medium-plus colour. Floral – roses and violets. Textured, partly the tannin but interestingly so, yet this is quickly forgotten given the gorgeous flavour. Can you (ever) have enough of this wine…(?)

2008 Clos Frantin Echézeaux

Tighter aromas. This seems rounder than the 09 and has managed to almost completely bury its structure. The acidity draws out more and more flavour in the finish.

The aromas are much more obviously fruit-led, with a faint creamy-oak undertow. Good, less sweet fruit, well structured. It’s rather intense, delivering a super burst of interest as it heads into the finish. Very decent Echézeaux!

2008 Bouchard Aine Echézeaux

The nose is actually quite similar to the last (Bichot) Echézeaux with its creamy-oak edged-fruit. More supple, though there’s a little less excitement – let’s say energy. All said, it’s very well packaged and is quite long.
