Domaine François Lamarche Échezeaux 2005 is a Grand Cru red Burgundy from a vineyard located on the flats above the Clos de Vougeot. The 2005 vintage was a powerful and structured year that produced wines with a high concentration of fruit and very firm tannins. This wine has required nearly two decades to soften and is now showing a complex profile of spice and dark cherry. It is a robust and earthy version of Pinot Noir that reflects the heavy clay soils of this specific part of the Échezeaux vineyard.

Vinous
Good deep red. Strawberry, mocha, nutty oak and a meaty nuance on the nose; lower-toned than the Vosne premier crus. Supple, broad, ripe and dry; displaying more volume than complexity or perfume today. But here the broad tannins are sweeter and arrive later. The wine's chewy material suggests it will reward extended aging, but I still find this a tad rustic.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2008
