Description

Grands Echézeaux 1994

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

u. 2x4.5cm, 1x5.5cm, labels very slightly soiled, 1 very slightly scuffed, 1 capsule slightly worn at base, consecutive bottle numbers

Lovely, fresh, easy and attractive and now soft at 13 years old. I know I was not influenced by drinking this on a balmy Greek night! For this type of vintage it often pays to catch the fruit and consume one's bottles relatively young. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
