Joseph Drouhin 2004 Pinot Noir (Grands-Echezeaux)
- $188
Power and spice epitomize this wine, a firm, solid structure that keeps complexity and elegance as part of the package, and that will reward long aging. It may be big, but it keeps a sense of proportion, with dark fruits balanced with fresh acidity.

Joseph Drouhin 2003 Pinot Noir (Grands-Echezeaux)
- $110
A wonderful, perfumed , black fruitball of a wine, with intense flavors that has a balance of dense red fruits and dark, structured tannins. The purity of the fruit is a reflection of the organic vineyard practices by the Drouhin family, and the tannins show that this is a wine that will age.

Joseph Drouhin 2007 Pinot Noir (Grands-Echezeaux)
- Cellar Selection
- $285
Dark and structured, powered by smoky tannins and plum skin texture. The wine is just beginning, its weight an indication of good aging potential. It is firm and dense, the acidity providing an attractive final freshness.

Joseph Drouhin 2006 Pinot Noir (Grands-Echezeaux)
- $285
A big, powerful wine that brings together dark tannins and dense fruit. The fruit flavors are ripe black plum buried within the concentrated dryness of the tannin. No question, this needs aging for all its burly potential to be realized.

Henri de Villamont 2007 Pinot Noir (Grands-Echezeaux)
A powerful wine, packed with solid tannins, giving rich fruit over the hard, youthful structure. Black tannins and complex bitter chocolate and acidity suggest this is a wine that still needs time to knit together. The final is big and generous.

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti 2004 Pinot Noir (Grands-Echezeaux)
- $129
Initial animal, rustic aromas blow away after a few minutes. On the palate, pure fruits are dominant, just hinting at some of the typical 2004 pepper character. It’s a spicy, complex wine, with excellent acidity right through the finish, and always firm.

Henri de Villamont 2005 Pinot Noir (Grands-Echezeaux)
- $107
A powerful, chunky wine, packed with solid tannins that promise good aging. It has a sense of drama in its spice, dark tannins and spacious fruit. This is going to develop well over 5–10 years.

Albert Bichot 2003 Domaine du Clos Frantin Pinot Noir (Grands-Echezeaux)
- $190
A big, structured but juicy wine that exudes perfumed Pinot Noir. Almost Californian in its richness, it has layers of dry tannins that make its pedigree clear. There is also impressive freshness and acidity to give the whole wine a lift. Imported by Eagle Eye Imports.
