The light-bodied, medium ruby-colored Echezeaux is soft, round, complex, and lightly tannic. It can be drunk now as well as over the next 7-8 years. Although very good, it is not as concentrated as most grand crus. While Domaine Dujac's 1993s possess some of the characteristic Jacques Seysses precociousness, they also contain plenty of structure and tannin. To my surprise, Seysses feels that the 1993 vintage is "one of his greatest, even better than 1990," which he now dismisses as "over-ripe" and "atypical."
