A fun trio of 2009 Echezeaux (E. Rouget, Meo-Camuzet, DRC). All three were in the very front end of their drinking window . My ranking was Rouget, DRC (a close second), Meo. The Rougeot opened up early and had a soulfulness that I loved. The Meo held back most of what will likely be very enticing one day. The DRC started slow and ultimately brought the most smiles to the group. I suspect this tasting in 2033 will be even more rewarding, as these 2009's are very early days.

Wow, great nose here, reminiscent of the Leroy style with red fruit, cinnamon. Ripeness of 2009 coming though without overripness. Very light color, gently extracted. Awesome, bummer about the price today of the Rouget bottles.

This presented much older than a bottle last year, but that was a positive. Lovely juice.

Slow ox two hours. Pretty nose, lots of spice, darker side of Vosne, some florals under the earthy notes. Light palate. 92-93

Much more closed and subdued. After 2 hours it got interesting and the spice came out but still very little in the nose
