Romanée-Conti--Vintage 1937
Côte de Nuits, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Re-waxed by owner. Bin-soiled label: Level: 4cm
One of the greatest-ever DRCs. I remember my first note, dining with a rich farmer in Cheshire, England "big and black, taut and concentrated - the same class as Mouton '45". It was 40 years old at the time. Over 30 years later completely upstaging the '37 red Bordeaux: "warm, concentrated colour; rich, ripe, classic bouquet, very sweet, full and fleshy". Smelling and tasting it reminded me of the dance of the seven veils, each sniff, each taste, revealed extra scents and nuances. MB.
