2009 Domaine Fourrier, Gevrey-Chambertin, Aux Echezeaux Vieille Vigne 1x750ml

Robert Parker 91

The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin Aux Echezeaux opens with an exuberant bouquet of roses, berries and spices. It shows gorgeous depth and finesse in a weightless, elegant style. The round, textured finish is gorgeous. Aux Echezeaux is on the border with Morey. Anticipated maturity: 2017-2029. [Antonio Galloni, 01/05/2011]

Vinous 89-92

(from the extreme southern end of the appellation) Medium red. Slightly reduced but complex aromas and flavors of raspberry, strawberry, redcurrant, iron and rose petal. Fat and sweet but with good inner-mouth tension. Finishes with broad, suave tannins and vibrant red cherry and mineral flavors. A village wine with real lift. [Stephen Tanzer, 01/01/2011]
