Description
Corton, Prince Florent de Mérode 2017
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Côte de Beaune, Grand Cru
Excellent level, label slightly damp stained and torn; Excellent niveau, étiquette légèrement tachée par l'humidité et déchirée
Average age of vines 55 years. 33 hl/hectare produced. A blend of Les Bressandes, Le Clos du Roi and Les Renardes. In 2020, a lovely strawberryish nose, so 'racé' and refined. A real taste of Corton terroir here, oozing the generosity of Bresssandes. Sweet, charming and, dare I say it, very accessible which is a lovely characteristic of 2017. It will be difficult to resist. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

Provenance:
DRC and other top Burgundy from a highly regarded sommelier who has directed prestigious wine programs in both the U.S. and Europe. These wines were acquired through allocations from the importers and distributors of these wines and stored in a home cellar in the countryside. We have enjoyed bottles from this collection over the years, and they display aromas and flavors consistent with strong examples of these wines.

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti et autres grands vins de Bourgogne provenant de la cave d’un sommelier de renom, ayant élaboré la carte des vins dans des établissements prestigieux aux États-Unis comme en Europe. Les vins ont été acquis par le biais d’allocations auprès des importateurs et distributeurs de ces domaines, puis conservés dans une cave privée à la campagne. Nous avons eu l’occasion de déguster plusieurs bouteilles issues de cette collection au fil des années, celles-ci présentant les caractéristiques aromatiques et gustatives attendues des meilleurs exemples de ces vins.
