Grands-Echézeaux Grand Cru, Domaine du Clos Frantin (Albert Bichot)

Note:

An overtly spicy and quite floral nose features notes of both red and dark berries, plum, violet and sandalwood. The rich and full-bodied flavors possess a sleek muscularity where the opulence and lush mouth feel is enhanced by the abundant amounts of dry extract that also help to buffer the very firm structure on the explosively long finale where the only nit is a hint of warmth. This isn`t a Grands Ech of refinement but it certainly is bold and muscular.
