95-98 points Fine Wine Review: "As outstanding as the premiers crus are, we’re a clear step up with the Echézeaux. The wine shows red fruit, sensuality, purity, depth, length, and completeness. In 2017, the estate took back its parcel of Rouges du Bas that had previously been sharecropped and vinified all the Echézeaux grapes togethers. About 55-60% new oak here. (4/22/19)"

93-97 points Jasper Morris, MW: "Made up from Quartiers de Nuits, still sharecropped, and Les Rouges du Bas, which they now run themselves but the crop here was light in 2017, so the proportions between the two is still close to 50/50. This has been matured in 60% new wood. The nose is subtle, delicate charming but far from light. The fruit in the mouth is just ripe enough, deep cherry with some raspberry notes, but absolutely the lacy nature of the appellation. Pure charming fruit here. Very classic medium bodied Echezeaux .Tasted: November 2018."

96 points Tim Atkin, MW (Decanter): "The Mugneret sisters' Échézeaux comes from two contrasting parcels in Les Rouges du Bas and Les Quartiers de Nuits. It's quite oaky at the moment, thanks to 75% new wood, but there's plenty of plush, textured fruit to soak up the splinters. It's floral and refined with the feminine touch that typifies the domaine's wines. Drink between 2022-2032. (Nov 2018)"

94 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2017 Echezeaux Grand Cru is still very open and expressive despite its recent bottling, bursting from the glass with aromas of smoky cherries, ripe berries, orange rind, dark chocolate and espresso roast. On the palate, it's full-bodied, textural and enveloping, with powdery tannins, lively acids and an ample core of fruit, concluding with a long and perfumed finish. (Jan 2020)"
