The 2001 Echezeaux offers aromas reminiscent of spicy, peppery black cherries. On the palate, this light to medium-bodied wine is elegant, well-detailed, and fresh. It bursts on the attack, revealing lively blackberries and dark cherries. This refined, expressive effort also possesses a long, ripe finish. Drink it between 2005 and 2010.
