We had the 2000 M-M Echezeaux tonight with some nice cheeses from Bobolink in NJ (CurdNerd), epoisses and bread from Rockhill Bakery in South Glens Falls, NY. The Cheddar was particularly excellent. The wine went very well with each of the cheeses. The Echezeaux was very feminine with a relatively light red color. The nose was not particularly overpowering, but had hints of rose petal and dried cherry. The wine had a soft mouthfeel without an overtly tannic component. It was nicely balanced with acid and minerals. At $30/bottle this was a great value. I am looking forward to the other 11 bottles.
