Romanée Conti 1988 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (12 BT)

Romanée Conti 1988

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

Consecutive bottle nos. 03510 - 03521, u. 5x3cm, 2x3.5cm, 1x4cm, otherwise levels into the neck, "Interdiction d'exporter aux USA" stamped on labels, slightly oxidized capsules, purchased from Christie's London on 6 June 2013

Vintage started 28 September (32 hl/ha). Deep colour, crimson, has lost blue notes. Glorious nose of black cherries; heather and all of the maquis on the nose - imposing. Taste: youthful, very good balance of fruit, tannin, acidity. Tannins less camouflaged than in '89 - more apparent - wonderful raspberries on the palate. Chewy. A keeper. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

WA 97

當年9月28日開始採收，每公頃停產量3,200公升。色澤深邃，帶有嫣紅的色澤，藍調不再。黑櫻桃般的馥郁芳香，並有石南花和各種灌木的壯麗氣息。口感年輕，有極之平衡的果味；丹寧澎湃，酸度宜人，丹寧較明顯，不及1989年份的那麼內歛。此酒充滿令人驚喜的覆盆子香味，有嚼勁，值得珍而藏之。 施慧娜（葡萄酒大師M.W.）
