Thursday, July 4, 2013 - Day Four in Burgundy: Anne Gros, Hudelot-Noellat, Dujac and Drouhin (Cote d'Or): Barrel tasting at domaine. Every year this wine seems to get better as Anne Gros becomes increasingly familiar with the vineyard and its nuances. 2012 is an exceptional performance. All red fruit on nose and palate with great brightness and concentration. Lots of baking spice as well, but with great savory character. Incredibly well textured and elegant, new oak already in balance, with great persistence. Too early to say for certain, but this might be Anne Gros' first Echezeaux I would say is close in quality to her Clos Vougeot.
