These bottles are from the cellar of a long time licensee (restaurant) in Eastern Canada. They were acquired on release from the agent and immediately stored in the restaurant's environmentally controlled cellar until coming to Iron Gate.
The score for 2014 DRC Echezeaux is 94 points from Allen Meadows, The Burghound and the tasting note - A wonderfully complex nose features a broad array of spice elements with those of plum, violet, sandalwood and Asian-style tea that are also trimmed in soft wood nuances. There is good punch to the refined, cool and pure medium-bodied flavors that possess better concentration on the balanced, persistent and youthfully austere finale where the only nit is a very subtle hint of warmth. Of all of the wines in the Domaine's portfolio, in my view the Ech is the most improved over the last 10 years and it shows as the 2014 is bigger and more powerful than usual.
