Echezeaux 2013 Domaine de la Romanee Conti

Avis professionnels

Robert Parker (93)

The 2013 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a pure bouquet with minerally blackberry and raspberry scents, plus a light marine influence. The palate is surprisingly concentrated considering the growing season, thanks to it being the last vineyard picked on October 12 and the super-low yields of 16 hectoliters per hectare. It is endowed with impressive weight matched with a fine thread of acidity. There is a gentle grip in the mouth, but with the volume you might expect in a Richebourg on the finish. This is very promising - a quite ambitious Echézeaux in the making
