Tasting Notes

89-92
Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 17
(from the north side of the village; the Aux Echézeaux is from the extreme south side): Bright medium red. Red fruits, animal fur and game lifted by a floral element on the nose. Plush and seamless; a step up in thickness and suavity from the Aux Echézeaux, with its deep raspberry fruit complicated by a mineral component. Mouthfilling but not heavy, finishing quite long, with tannins totally supported by fruit.

Jancis Robinson Jancis Robinson - 11 Nov 16
North of village, bottom of Champerrier plus a bit from Combe du Bas, planted in 1928. 10,000 vines/ha and yields of about 28 hl/ha. This came from his father, and it's a complete coincidence that it was planted same year as Aux Échezeaux from his mother. Just racked into tank prior to tasting. Rich and svelte. Real difference of texture. Pacy and fully satisfying, spread across the palate. Super-clean and fresh. (JR)
