Here too the fruit is dominated by reductive notes though the intrinsic spice elements of a typical Echézeaux are discernible. More interesting are the racy and equally tension-filled if larger-scaled flavors that possess solid mid-palate volume if only average density before culminating in an inviting, firm and serious finale. As one would reasonably expect, this is going to need 12 to 15 years to reach its peak.
