Romanée Conti 1989

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

u.3cm, slightly scuffed and slightly bin-soiled label and vintage neck label, slightly nicked label, wrinkled capsule

Vintage started 20 September (30 hl/ha). Beautiful blue/crimson colour. Wonderful rich blackberry nose - heady, opulent, rich in alcohol. A touch smoky. Smells like very expensive leather! Maraschino cherries on the nose. Great glycerol, alcohol. Tannic - incredible power. Excellent acidity, so will last beautifully. Paradise. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
