Matured in 300-liter barrels made from oak that Mongeard selects and seasons himself, the 2019 Echézeaux Grand Cru La Grande Complication is a special cuvée that derives from vines planted in 1945 with the family´s massal selections, located in the lieu-dit of Les Treux. Unwinding in the glass with notes of orange rind, rose petals, exotic spices, cherries and berries, it´s full-bodied, deep and layered, with a concentrated, tightly wound core that shows considerable promise for long-term cellaring. Fermented 100% whole bunches, it´s one of the more reserved wines in the range.
An overtly toasty nose features notably ripe notes of various dark berries laced with a plethora of floral and spice wisps. There is both excellent volume and intensity to the muscular, serious and broad-shouldered flavors that exude a subtle minerality on the palate coating and solidly persistent finish. This is lovely and while it is quite firm, it´s not so backward that it will be unapproachable before full maturity.
