2014 Domaine Cecile Tremblay, Echezeaux Grand Cru, Echezeaux du Dessus 1x750ml

Robert Parker 93-95

The 2014 Echezeaux Grand Cru du Dessus, which was completely destemmed, has a lovely bouquet, very harmonious and perhaps showing more complexity than the Chapelle-Chambertin at the moment. The mineralite really comes through here. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, vibrant and vivacious with perfectly judged acidity. This is a really quite beautiful Echezeaux for long term aging (if you can resist temptation). [Neal Martin, 28/09/2017]

Anticipated maturity: 2017-2034

Vinous 92-95

(from 50-year-old vines):Good dark red; not as lucid as the Chapelle. The nose shows a strong musky, meaty reduction, with aromas of dark raspberry, violet and mocha emerging with some aeration. Sweet, smooth, plush and fine-grained, offering impressive volume without any undue weight. Finishes suavely tannic, seamless and very long. Tremblay reiterated that she would wait until June or July to bottle her top 2014s. Superb potential here. [Stephen Tanzer, 01/01/2016]
