2015 Domaine Anne Gros, Echezeaux Grand Cru, Les Loachausses 6x75cl

Vinous 91-94

(from a very early-ripening parcel): Good medium red but not as dark as the Vosne villages. Captivating scents of redcurrant, rose petal and tobacco. Ripe and rather powerful for this cuvee, like a coulis of red fruits intensified by penetrating acidity. The tannins are chewy and tactile but not dry, with the finish displaying terrific fruit retention. [Stephen Tanzer, 01/01/2017]
