Description
Romanée Conti 2003
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru
1 nicked label, 1 scuffed label
The amazing element behind Romanée-Conti this year is that the wine has almost 'normal' acidity, whether due to the individual terroir, the remarkably old average age (53 years) of the vines, or the minute yield, we do not know. Suffice it to say that it has a magic scent that is totally true and utterly impressive in its purity and clarity. Complex and packed with aromatics. The taste is of pure bilberries, astonishing. Soft and mellow on the long finish. Reined in glory. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
