Romanée-Conti--Vintage 1990
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Offered in an original wooden case of six bottles. Good appearance. Three very slightly marked and two slightly stained labels. Levels: three at 1cms and two at 1.5cms below base of corks
Tasting note: The 1990 Romanee-Conti should ultimately be the most compelling and complex of the DRC wines. Normally it possesses a lighter color than either La Tache or Richebourg, but in 1990 it boasts a surprisingly saturated color that is the equal of La Tache and Richebourg. The nose offers up sweet, clove, cinnamon, and blackberry aromas intermingled with toasty, smoky new oak. Lavishly rich and full-bodied, with abundant tannins, this profound, surprisingly large-scaled, tannic wine boasts more muscle than usual. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 83 (Oct 1992)
