Échézeaux -- Vintage 1985
Côte de Nuits, Henri Jayer
The bottle served at the tasting is easily the best, and freshest, example of this wine that I've ever had, at least since the wine has reached maturity. I've had the '85 Echézeaux at least 5 times in the last 3 years and every one of them, while enjoyable and wonderfully complex, was tiring after 30 minutes in the glass and revealing ample sous bois notes and meriting scores of 89 or 90 points. By contrast, this bottle displayed a bright and still fresh if no longer youthful nose of earth, spice and plenty of game and underbrush with no sous bois followed by sweet, delicious, rich and exuberantly expressive flavors of striking length, superb complexity and real breed. The hallmark Jayer character of a velvety finish is here in abundance and this is an extremely impressive effort. Lovely stuff and still quite fresh. BH, Oct 22, 2005
