Allen Meadows - Score: 90-93 (2019 January)

A more floral-inflected nose reflects plenty of spice, herbal tea and sandalwood influences on the ripe aromas of plum and black cherry liqueur. The rich, intense and delineated medium-bodied flavors also display a taut muscularity as well as good power while delivering fine persistence on the youthfully austere, chiseled and linear finish. This is an Echézeaux of finesse and minerality.
