Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. Fabrice Vigot is not a grower that I am familiar with, though I learned that their grapes for their Echézeaux 2011 actually comes from Mugneret-Gibourg. It sports one of the best bouquets in this peer flight, offering light marine influences suffusing the slightly blacker fruit than its peers. However, it possesses respectable delineation. The palate is medium-bodied, a little raw perhaps, and not quite translating the promise of the nose into the mouth. There is some attractive raspberry and red cherry fruit, a touch of tinned peach even, but the finish is linear and lacking some style.
