Grands Echézeaux 1971 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (2 BT)

Grands Echézeaux 1971

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

u. 1x4cm, 1x5.5cm, very scuffed labels, capsules slightly worn

A pure Guerlain scent on the nose. Enormous sweetness and luscious liquorice. Decadent, gamey taste. Sweet, candied violets. Astounding. At a blind tasting, I first thought it was Grands Echézeaux and then changed to Richebourg as it was "much too good for Grands Echézeaux"! I also thought it was a 1978 as it was so gamey. A second bottle was even younger, almost like 1985! Serena Sutcliffe, MW

純正的嬌蘭香氣，充滿甜美濃稠甘草味，加上野味及紫羅蘭氣息，十分迷人。於蒙瓶品試中，我最初認為是Grands Echézeaux但隨後改口說是Richebourg，因此佳釀比Grands Echézeaux更精彩。我亦以為這是1978年的出品，因野味氣息很重。第二瓶的感覺更年青，甚至像1985年的佳釀!施慧娜（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
