Romanée-Conti--Vintage 1998
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Excellent appearance and levels. Lot 7 is offered in a carton. Lot 8 is offered in an original wooden case of 6 bottles
Tasting note: Not a very impressive colour, but DRC wines are often misleading and actually gain colour in bottle. The nose of the wine that had been in a large burgundy glass for three hours had opened up and was lovely, whereas freshly poured in a tasting glass it was tighter and harder. So always give DRC wines plenty of air before drinking. On the palate fairly sweet, a full, rich wine with abundant fruit and lenght. As always, multidimensional. M.B. Feb 2001 ****. A long-haul wine
