Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy 94-97pts
Bright purple, clean and clear fruit on the nose, a little sunshine but the fruit retains its shape. Good energy on the palate, a fine variety of different fruits, a fine thread of acidity too. Rouges du Bas retains the freshness. The little touch of austerity means it keeps well. Jean-Nicolas has normally recommended keeping this cuvée for the long term, but he now finds it delivers a little more finesse
Labelled with the lieu-dit Rouges du Bas, paradoxically located fairly high on the slope, the parcel is 0.44ha and was planted in 1950. Méo acquired the property in 1987 and today it delivers a wine of profound concentration, with dark plummy fruit and notes of smoke, spice and a firm minerality. The wine can be a bit imposing, but there is also great elegance and finesse here.
Ultra-spicy red and black berry aromas combine with those of jasmine tea, violet, star anise and discreet oak. The succulent, rich and delicious flavors possess excellent volume and mid-palate density while exhibiting a subtle minerality on the firm, serious and built-to-age finale that also flashes a touch of warmth. This is terrific and in 2019 it is a bit more elegant than usual.
The 2019 Échezeaux Grand Cru Les Rouges du Bas is very promising indeed wafting from the glass with notes of rose petals plums red berries raw cocoa and exotic spices. Full-bodied velvety and enveloping it's lively and fragrant with rich and refined tannins good acidity and a long expansive finish.
