2009 Echézeaux, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Echezeaux, Domaine de la Romanee-Conti
The Domaine’s Echézeaux is sourced mostly from Les Poulaillères, considered to be one of the best lieux-dits within the grand cru. There is very little topsoil above the hard limestone bedrock, and the grapes always ripen easily. In occasional vintages it excels several of its brethren.Domaine de la Romanée Conti (DRC)

Very pretty open nose of sweet cherry fruit, yet with some restrained green notes too. The palate is structured and quite grippy with a bit of greenness as well as some spicy chocolatey notes. Lovely structure and texture here, with some volume on the mid palate.

The Echezeaux 2009 has a fragrant, tertiary bouquet with redcurrant, cranberry and notes of freshly tilled earth. Fine definition although it is a little reticent at the moment, even compared to the Duvault-Blochet. The palate is medium-bodied with crunchy cranberry and wild strawberry fruit, maintaining that earthy character with a “stemmy” note in the background. It is a harmonious Echezeaux but perhaps a little more masculine that I anticipated, suggesting that it my surprise by its longevity. It is very composed and gains a little weight with time in the glass. Tasted February 2012.
