The ruby-colored Echezeaux surprised me with its almost Pauillac-styled nose composed of oil, salt and what Dominique Laurent referred to as pencil lead. It is an elegant, medium-bodied, sweet and beautifully concentrated wine packed with crisp berries and violets. Projected maturity: 2000-2008. 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.
