"It may just have been my palate on this particular day, but I cannot recall ever tasting a greater young vintage of Echézeaux from Domaine Mugneret-Gibourg than this splendid 2010. The beautiful and nascently complex nose offers up a potpourri of red and black cherries, plums, raw cocoa, gamebirds, intense notes of violet, beautiful soil tones and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and sappy at the core, with stunning transparency, seamless, ripe tannins, laser-like focus and brilliant complexity to come on the very, very long, dancing and tangy finish. This is not as powerful as the 2005 version here (my previous high water mark for this bottling chez Mugneret), but finer, more transparent and with a touch more nascent complexity. Just a beautiful, beautiful example of Echézeaux."
