DOMAINE DE LA ROMANEE CONTI 1997

Pauillac
La délicatesse du nez rejoint une belle complexité où l’on retrouve à la fois des fruits noirs compotés, des épices douces, du tabac blond, des notes de fougère et de cacao.
La bouche est immédiatement fondue autour d’un fruit juteux, des tanins très souples et une fraîche vigueur qui s’affirme en finale.
Le vin est savoureux, très plaisant, léger et ne se départit jamais d’une belle élégance : un margaux de charme. On le décantera une heure avant son service. GEORGES LEPRE
A seductive style of Palmer, the 1997 will have many admirers (assuming they can afford it). It boasts a dark rubyplumpurple color in addition to a seductive bouquet of sweet berry fruit, and an elegant, medium-bodied, fruit-driven, easy-going, fleshy personality. While there is little weight and density, the wine's harmony is excellent.
