Vosne Romanee, Cuvee Duvault-Blochet 1999 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti Vosne Romanee, Cuvee Duvault-Blochet 1999 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti Cote de Nuits, 1er Cru Lot 971: Excellent level, label soiled Lot 972: Excellent level, label slightly soiled In 2013, terrific wine, with a great raspberry taste. There is a backbone of well-defined tannins underpinning the fruit. Serena Sutcliffe, MW Lot 971 1 bt (cn) per lot: GBP 360-440 per lot: USD 600-720 per lot: EUR 440-520 The Domaine, as it is known, is iconic. Much more important, it also produces the most extraordinary wines in Burgundy - and it has been doing so for a long time. The generations responsible for the Domaine change, but the terroir remains. And these are very special vineyard parcels indeed, married to meticulous care and philosophy leading to low yields and healthy, ripe grapes, at whatever cost. From the 1990s, vineyard policy has been organic, with co-owner Aubert de Villaine monitoring everything with his usual attention to detail. Domaine de la Romanee-Conti wines evolve and develop dimensions in a way that resembles a mosaic - points of bouquet and flavour making up a harmonious whole that becomes more beautiful as it unfolds in the glass. Yes, these are hedonistic wines and, yes, they are not like any other. The trick is in capturing what these remarkable plots of vines can give and letting them express themselves through minimum intervention and enlightened nurturing. Serena Sutcliffe, MW LYING IN GREENFORD, MIDDLESEX Offered Duty Paid only Quantity: 1
