Product Description
RP95 "Lachaux lost half of his crop in this vineyard to frost, but the 2016 Echezeaux Grand Cru is superb, offering up a deep bouquet of wild berries, orange rind and mossy soil. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, deep and expansive, with a firm, tight-knit core, excellent concentration and a rich chassis of structuring tannin, underpinned by vibrant acids. This will need and reward time, but it's one of the finest renditions of this site to date from Charles Lachaux." WK for TWA Jan 2019
VM94 "The 2016 Echézeaux Grand Cru comes from Les Rouges du Bas and contains a 100% whole bunch. It has a lucid ruby colour. A little muted at first, it opens with dark cherry, orange blossom and raspberry preserve scents, a hint of vanilla pod in the background. The palate is ripe and sappy on the entry with superb definition, a little spice towards the finish, an Echézeaux with what feels like natural flow. Superb." NM for VM Mar 2018
