Echezeaux 2003 Rene Engel

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (91)

Tasted at the Domaine Engel tasting in London, the 2003 Echezeaux Grand Cru has a deeper color compared to the 2002: pure and charming with maraschino cherry, peppermint and a slight peaty note. The palate is medium-bodied with plump tannin but counterbalanced with a crisp line of acidity. There is a savory note here, gaining density towards the truffle and smoke-tinged finish that lingers in the mouth. A bit stocky but hey, it's a 2003 and a damn good one at that.

Slightly exaggerated toasty oak on the nose. Lots of acidity and fruit on the palate. A bit grainy, even sandy, on the palate.
