Grands Echezeaux 1996 Domaine de la Romanee Conti

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (92)

This dark-colored wine displays a magnificently elegant nose of cassis, black cherries, and roses. This is an austere yet expansive, complex, medium-to-full-bodied, ripe and masculine wine. It is dense and powerful yet maintains a refined combination of muscle and class. Its tightly wound core offers red and black currants, cherries, minerals, and toasted oak flavors, all of which linger in its admirably focused and firm finish.

Winespectator (94)

Earthy and gamy yet thick and ripe, it explodes with blackberry, currant and sun-dried tomato character. Spicy, smoky finish.
