The 2016 Echezeaux Grand Cru, which was hit hard by the frost, comes from Les Rouge du Bas and Les Treux. It has a straightforward redcurrant and strawberry-scented bouquet with touches of smoke and leather. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, ripe tannin, crisp acidity and a grippy, slightly coarse finish that will need to forage more sophistication in bottle. I feel that the difficulties of the growing season overwhelm this wine.

The 2015 Echézeaux Grand Cru was completely de-stemmed. It has an expressive bouquet, elegant in style with plenty of brambly red berry fruit mixed with touches of chalk and granite infusing the fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, very well balanced with a keen thread of acidity, building towards the grippy but very well-balanced finish. This is an excellent Echézeaux that will give drinking pleasure over the next two decades.

The 2014 Echézeaux Grand Cru comes from the top of the grand cru in "Les Poulaillères." It includes 40% whole bunch fruit from the 80-year-old vines and there are two barrels. It has a strict and precise, wild hedgerow-scented bouquet with just a hint of black tea. The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin, a little chalkiness here, but with satisfying depth on the finish that lingers in the mouth. Very fine.
