April 4, 2024 - Still too young. Opened to an extent after an hour that was about it. Fine wine, long lived….

June 8, 2023 - "Casual DRC BYO": 07620/14651. Lovely vintage ripeness, much weightier than this wine in other vintages, with classic woodiness and enough red fruit to caress the palate. It was however quite sleepy throughout the night; not a vintage to drink yet, still. 93-94

January 11, 2023 - I regard this as the best vintage ever made by DRC that I have tasted. Stunningly rich, expressive. Very sappy and plush, almost exhuberant, but its got enough tension and acidity to frame it all in. There's a beautiful milky, dusty coat that grips the tongue. Red and blue fruit, rose petals, exotic spices. Had this once or twice a year for over a decade and it mostly is consistent except it often shuts down and opens in cycles like a great wine trying to find its plateau. Easily last a few more decades. 5 years more at least before it finds its plateau.

February 13, 2022 - Terrific bottle, an exotic and thrilling Echezeaux that's wonderful now with a long life ahead. Quite a bit more accessible than recently tasted '99 Richebourg, RSV, and GE. Spice, tea, and rose petals this is reference standard bravo!

August 11, 2021 - As good if not perhaps even better paired with food from esora! So layered complex and changed quite a bit over the drinking window. But certainly could still cellar because of the incredible structure of the 99. Love it!
