Score 93-96/100 · Drink 2002-2012, Pierre Rovani, Jun 1997

Truly extraordinary, Laurent's medium-to-dark ruby-colored Grands-Echezeaux (produced from vines planted in 1926) reveals mouth-watering super-ripe black cherry, perfumed aromas of amazing depth. Awesomely sweet, this violet and red berry-laden, spicy, full-bodied, harmonious wine is elegant, perfectly structured and possesses and intensely long finish. It will be at its best between 2002-2012. This note is the result of tastings I did in Burgundy between January 7 and January 29. The wine was tasted from cask, not bottle. Pinot Noir, a fragile varietal, reacts poorly to fining, filtration, and careless bottling techniques, I recommend caution when considering buying a red burgundy based on cask samples. I called it as I tasted it, and hope the bottled wine reflects the quality of the samples I was provided. A Patrick Lesec Selection (Paris Fax # 011-33-1-42-84-38-22), various American importers.
