DRC Grands Echezeaux 2012 1.5L

"Medium red. Very refined aromas of raspberry, flowers and white pepper. Intensely flavored and savory if a bit youthfully tight in the middle. Most impressive today on the explosive, saline back end, which shows noble tannins, outstanding fruit perfume and great length and grip. This beauty should evolve slowly and gracefully in bottle." - Vinous, AG95+ (ST), tasted 1/2014
