Romanée-Conti--Vintage 1998
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Tasting Note : Bottled June-July 2000, 422 cases of 12 bottles or equivalent. Not a very impressive colour, but DRC wines are often misleading and actually gain colour in bottle. Arriving late at the Corney & Barrow's tasting, I took advantage of smelling the wine that had been sitting in a large burgundy glass for at least three hours. Fully awakened by the air, it was a lovely, whereas freshly poured in my glass it was tighter, harder, spicy and concentrated. On the palate fairly sweet, a full, rich wine with abundant fruit and length. As always, multidimensional. Feb 2001 **** A long haul wine. M.B.
