intense and stony medium-bodied flavors that possess more volume than those of the Reignots before terminating in a wonderfully long and impeccably well-balanced finale

it hits the palate with a full-bodied

moderate but not invisible wood and menthol suffuse the ripe yet cool aromas of black cherry

This too is exceptionally ripe with jammy black pinot fruit and warm earth scents that are trimmed in a hint of prune

The 2011 and 2012 vintages are close cousins

Francois Lamarche, Echezeaux other_regions_italy intense and stony medium-bodied flavors(from the climats of Les Rouges du Bas, Les Cruots and Clos St. Denis). A very attractive blend of black fruit, Vosne spice and a moderate dollop of new wood introduces rich, full and notably ripe flavors that possess good volume and a velvety, indeed almost suave finish that cannot disguise the impressive power and robust structure. This will require the better part of a decade to fully resolve the slightly rustic tannic spine. 90 2014+
