January 25, 2012 - What a beautiful wine. Reminds me of the '89 Rouget Echezeaux, it was that good. Earthy, spicy, full-bodied, complex, slightest hint of brett--in a good way, a great wine.

October 21, 2011 - Another great '98 Burgundy! I'm becoming a fan of this underrated vintage. I found out that this parcel of Echezeaux used to be owned by DRC. Great complexity with nice tertiary notes. Great body and long finish.

September 6, 2010 - gorgeous and elegant. Light, but not boring. Hint of tar as it opened.
