Initially the nose is excellent and aromatic. Very elegant and gentle. I would have rate this perfect score. But the nose did not hold for too long. Maybe is the glasses that I used, in a Chinese restaurant and without proper glassware. Notes of spices, flora, roses, red fruits, mushroom, toast. Medium+ acidity and medium tannin. Long finish.

Echezeaux Extravaganza: The first DRC in the tasting and really stood out. The DRCs were very different next to the other wines and the stem was evident versus the completely de-stemmed style of the Jayers and Rougets. The nose was appealing but really a bit hard and short on the palate. Not one of my favourites tonight.

Tonight I though this was good to very good but didnt blow me away. Classic DRC texture and mouth feel. Asian spices and cherries. Some cedar notes. Bright red fruit. This is drinking really well right now but just didnt have that extra DRC level.

Party at My Place: A beautiful purple perfume wth great spice. Stalky and expressive. A little bit of nice sauvage in this too, although this is on the cleaner side overall. Pretty straight forward, I’m not getting as much detail or complexity out of this as I’d expect. Good not great, this was a pretty down the middle and plain vanilla example of DRC's iteration of Echezeaux.
