Denis Mortet, Echezeaux other_regions_australia along with an exotic spice(from a leased . 29 ha parcel in En Orveaux where Mortet receives half of the production). More discreet oak surrounds the notably spice infused aromas of red and dark berries, sandalwood and Asian style tea. The medium weight flavors possess a highly seductive and refined mouthfeel while delivering evident minerality on the persistent, complex and nicely balanced finish. This is firm and a bit austere but not rustic and should age gracefully. (90 93)
