Tasted at the Domaine Engel tasting in London, the 1993 Echézeaux Grand Cru was not quite the stellar bottle that I tasted a couple of years ago, nevertheless, what a wine. There was a bit of dustiness on this bottle that might have knocked off a point. It retains that dried flower note from before, though this bottle introduced a dried blood component. The palate is beautifully balanced, quite structured and maybe a little more conservative than I recall. It is still suave and sophisticated, but you get the feeling that this bottle is not letting everything go. Still, a sublime 1993 from the late Philippe Engel. Tasted October 2016.
