Generous but not dominant wood fights a bit with the exceptionally spicy and fresh dark berry fruit and warm earth aromas that merge into full-bodied, powerful and solidly well concentrated flavors that brim with dry extract on the palate staining and impressively long finish. This is not an elegant wine but it is a well-balanced effort.
The 2009 Echezeaux is like silk on the palate. It is an intense, enveloping wine that fills out nicely with time in the glass, showing lovely juiciness and integrity. The fruit flows through beautifully to the well-balanced, persistent finish. Tasted again 30 minutes after opening the wine acquires an explosive, full-bodied personality that is hard to resist. This is a highly satisfying, harmonious Burgundy. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2029.
