Anne-Francoise Gros, Echezeaux 2015

A beautifully well-layered nose offers up an abundance of spice and floral elements that add plenty of breadth to the mostly red berry liqueur scents. The seductively textured big-bodied flavors coat the palate with sappy dry extract that does a fine job of buffering the firm tannic spine shaping the lush, opulent and wonderfully persistent finish. This beauty should drink reasonably well young but have no problem rewarding extended cellaring.
