This was good and frankly I think I did it a disservice by not decanting; the nose was open and lovely from the start with lots of floral notes, spiced tea, ripe red berry fruits; all classic in style; the palate started a bit thin, but gained in intensity and power throughout the evening; I think a 60 minute decant would have made it better from the start; still very good; plenty of time ahead.

In a great drinking window. Lush, great body, good acidity and tannin. Black fruit. Long finish. Maybe on the lighter side for Echezaux, but a great wine.

Perfect cork, opened right up. Tannins mostly resolved, complex with a long finis. Sadly, last one.
