Robert Parker Wine Advocate Neal Martin - 29 Dec 17
Nicole told me she lost between 20% and 25% of the crop of her 2016 Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru this year. This is evident on the nose that has more fruit intensity and joie de vivre than the Echézeaux. It springs forth with Morello cherries, crushed strawberry and minerals, beautifully defined and focused. The palate is very well balanced with supple tannin, impressive depth (obviously not carried by any new oak) with a gentle but insistent grip toward the finish. I love the arching structure of this Grands Echézeaux carried mostly by the fruit tannin, plus the persistence on the finish. Superb.
