This 2013 Grands Echezeaux feels like it’s going downhill, confirms my suspicion that it has already peaked in 2019 from my last bottle. Served next to 17 Petits Monts and 17 Chambolle Feusellottes. Showing maturing notes of saturated cherry and hints of charcuterie. Gentle extraction with a smokey wood backbone. Drink up! (88/100)

Dégustation Open Dreamer Style chez Simon B: Bu dans la même vague côte à côte avec les Ruchottes de Mugneret-Gibourg et Rousseau au profil plus aérien. Il s'est distingué par son profil masculin et un bouquet composé de fruits noirs et de notes fumées, chocolatées, d'anis étoilé et de torréfaction. Il a pris quelque temps avant de s'ouvrir et démontrait des notes de réduction à l'ouverture donc rien presse il est préférable de le laisser dormir en cave jusqu'en 2030.

The 2013 Georges Noellat Grands Echezeaux is surprisingly drinking well now, which makes me wonder how long this will age. The Grands Echezeaux offers a Vosne Romanee-style of ethereal bouquet and spices with also a strong flinty-gravel backbone. Great richness for a weak vintage with no signs of green or drying tannins that I usually associate with 2013. Crunchy dark berries, smoked minerals and bubbly fruits. Gorgeous. (94/100)

Right out of the cellar this started with tart dark fruit and stemmy-woody. But with 15 min airtime it blossomed.
Dark berry and fresh plum fruit, integrated with a welcome bite of complexity, mellowing med tannins and low-med acid. 13% Alc.
This is delicious and integrated, ready to drink. For fans of fruit but not-over-the-top fruit.
