LEGENARY 1945 ROMANEE-CONTI
Lying at Christie's South Kensington
Romanée-Conti Grand Cru--Vintage 1945
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Domaine capsule. Bin-soiled and slightly scuffed label. Very good level 4.8cms below base of cork. Wartime glass
Tasting note: Medium-deep, richly coloured; amazingly sweet bouquet, after 10 minutes black truffles and whiff of liquorice, and after 30 minutes unspeakably glorious, reminding me of fresh raspberry crumble; sweet, firm, spicy, richly textured, perfect crisp fruit, great length. Last tasted March 2002. ******
