Community Tasting Note

Friday, March 29, 2024 - Wow! I was unsure if this would be open for business but indeed it was! With a short decant of two hours this wine was really singing. The DRC in my opinion has a certain perfume to it just like some other notable producers like Coche, Rayas and for example, Liger Belair. The Echezeaux might be the smallest one in the lineup. But when you put it against other top domains in burgundy, the pedigree of the DRC really stands out in my opinion. 2009 has a sweet nose with loads of DRC characteristics which I always find hard to describe. It is somehow herbaceous, sweet and acid driven at the same time . This makes for a complex nose which you can smell for hours and hours. On the palate it offers up a sweet attack, medium body, some tannins left but they are very mature and nonobtrusive. The finish is very very long and is driven by both the fruit and the acidity. The 2009 vintage seems to be a winner with DRC and you cannot sense the warmness of the vintage in this Wine. It is very elegant and refined. I will however wait another 5 to 10 years to drink the last bottle as I’m sure it will develop very nicely.
