Tasting notes
The 2015 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a pure, floral bouquet with iris and incense aromas filtering through the dark cherry and boysenberry fruit. It has fine delineation and focus, if not huge intensity at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied and cohesive in the mouth: supple tannin, very well-judged acidity, quite spicy towards the finish with good persistence. This is a sublime offering from Méo-Camuzet.

Full medium ruby. Lovely lift to the aromas of blackberry, violet and licorice. Densely packed and almost confectionery in its sweetness but with a firm spine of acidity giving this very primary wine a wonderfully juicy character. The long, rising finish features suave tannins, but this wine will need time to expand in the bottle. Méo told me he picked this fruit late ("in the high 13s") but that it always retains strong acidity.
