Albert Bichot Echézeaux Grand Cru 2017
Red
Flagey Echezeaux, France
7.3
WineSaint
Bright acidity and mineral precision define this medium-bodied effort, but the wine feels too restrained for grand cru status. Red fruit and saline notes show elegance, yet it lacks the depth and concentration expected from Echézeaux. Pleasant but underwhelming.
