Decanter
Reviewed November 2023This medium-deep garnet wine boasts a bright, elegant pomegranate and red plum fruit aroma with an edge of earth and spice. The texture is approachably silky and very fine, but there is enough substance to ensure a long life in the cellar. The grapes are from the lieux-dits Rouges de Bas and Quartiers de Nuits. The total owned by the domaine is one hectare, but they have let half of the Quartiers de Nuits to their cousin Pascal Mugneret. The sisters have destemmed the grapes and fermented them gently, and the wine is now ageing in cask (60% new). (CC)

Jasper Morris
15% whole bunch following their tradition which began in 2016. A deep crimson purple. Quite a delicious bouquet here, refined, delicate, in the lattice-work style. Entirely a red berry fruit, alpine strawberries, excellent acidity, waves of nuanced fruit, flowing through to a fine long finish. Graceful and stylish.

Wine Advocate
As usual, a blend of Les Rouges du Bas and Les Quartiers de Nuits, the 2022 Echezeaux Grand Cru is broad and enveloping, bursting with aromas of dark cherries, raspberries, rose petals and spices. Medium to full-bodied, layered and textural, with a fleshy core of fruit, supple tannins and lively underlying acidity, it will offer a wide drinking window. (WK)

Vinous
The 2014 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a well-defined bouquet: dark berry fruit, loam, forest floor and truffle scents, expressive once given rigorous aeration (though decanting would benefit the aromatics no end.) The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins, mainly black fruit laced with graphite and tar, with hints of licorice towards the end. This has reached its plateau, yet it has the substance to continue aging for a long time. (NM)
