Nose
Deep cherry, raspberry, manuka honey, absinthe, dried mushroom, sage, cardamom, chamomile, fennel seed
Palette reflecting the nose – Finish lasting many minutes.
Roundest wine I've ever tried. Like sucking on a holistic cough drop. So many medicinal flavours. A shamanistic combination of earth, fruit & foilage.

He is correct.
It’s a GE, not echezeaux.
Notes are also weird, you shouldn’t see that much earth in a young DRC, will probably taste mostly oak and fruit with a bit of whole cluster spice.
I would love to try this bottle, but I will never have the chance to drink a $3000 bottle.
Any day you have a DRC is a good day
You think it’s good now, check back in 10-15
My first was a 2014 richebourgh a few years ago and I actually agree with some of your notes. The woody herbal notes from the stems/whole cluster was insane. Absurdly long finish. Super interesting wine and I’d love to try and long cellared one sometime.
thx for sharing your experience pal🍷, cheers 🥂
