"Echézeaux, Dominique Laurent, 2008Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes. Côte de Nuits.Pristine condition.6 bottles (75cl).The Wine Advocate June 2010, 92-93 points“Comprising five barrels from four different growersin Poulaillieres, Les Treux, Grands Echézeaux, andEchezeaux du Dessus – but in total representing less thanhalf of the volume he produced from 2006 – Laurent’s2008 Echézeaux Vieilles Vignes features fresh rhubarband red cherry as well as singed, vanilla- and cocoapowder-tinged caramelized pit fruits and baked goods.The tension between fresh berry tartness and caramelizedconfection; between richness and vivacity, is uncannilysynergistic. A creamy richness of texture adds allureand underlying suggestions of peat and tobacco furthercomplexity. The finish here is ravishing and irresistiblyinsistent that I take another sip … and another. As winsomeas this is – especially for its vintage – it harborsenergy to take it through at least 15 years of excellence.”"
