GRANDS ECHEZEAUX 1985 DOMAINE DE LA ROMANEE-CONTI |

Grands Echézeaux 1985 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Côte de Nuits, Grand Cruu. 1x3cm, wines come from different importers, scuffed, stained, and torn labels, slightly corroded capsulesOn my birthday in 2017. When you put your nose in the glass, you realise that you do not see this very often - a strawberry/earthy, heathery/foresty attack and exuberance. On the palate, wild herbs and totally 'inebriating' in its sweet intensity. Gamey and fresh, all succulent wild cherries. It does have another dimension, even in the context of beauteous 1985s. This is still so young - would that we were too...... Serena Sutcliffe, MW2 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
