A Montreal based consignor who began collecting seriously 6 years ago when a good friend whose appreciation of wine led them to monthly tastings of rare and fine wine. She has been purchasing at a rate that will be difficult to consume and wanted to share some of their wines with others, through auction. All the bottles in this auction were sourced through the SAQ and have been stored in a eurocave or transtherm wine cooler.
The wine in this lot has a score of 96 from Robert Parker and the following tasting note -The 2019 Echezeaux Grand Cru Les Rouges is brilliant, bursting from the glass with aromas of wild berries, plums, exotic spices, orange rind and woodsmoke. Full-bodied, velvety and concentrated, it's deep and layered, with striking mid-palate plenitude and a long, expansive finish. Showing more structure and tension than I perceived in barrel, it will require a bit of patience. Charles Lachaux's meteoric ascent continues, and my prophesy several years ago (in one of my first articles in The Wine Advocate) as to the brightness of his future is well on the way to being realized. In the vineyards as in the cellar, Lachaux continues to push the boundaries, and it's immensely gratifying to see someone who considers that inheriting some of the greatest vineyards in the world imposes an obligation to take risks that others can't, rather than merely entitling him to a high bottle price. During several visits to the domaine this fall, I tasted both the bottled 2019s and the infant 2020s from barrel.
