The 2017 Grands Echèzeaux from Maison Joseph Drouhin is another brilliant example of the vintage. The wine was still in barrel in November, with the grapes having been picked on September 8th for this wine and thirty-five percent whole clusters included this year. The wine is still a puppy and was in the process of absorbing its thirty percent new oak, but all of the constituent components are in place for a stunning wine down the road. The still slightly new oak bouquet (which of course will pass in due course) offers up a refined blend of black cherries, sweet dark berries, woodsmoke, gamebird, dark chocolate, a bit of sweet stems and the aforementioned spicy new oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full and rock solid at the core, with lovely soil signature, fine-grained tannins and huge backend energy giving the wine stunning length and grip on the perfectly balanced and complex finish. Great juice. 2029-2085.
