Note di degustazione
The 1959 Grands Échézeaux Grand Cru continues to drink beautifully today, offering up a deep and pure bouquet of sweet raspberries and blackberries mingled with hints of orange rind, potpourri and spices. Full-bodied, fleshy and layered, it's deep and round, with a sweet core of fruit, melting tannins and a suave, sensual profile. This may not be the most intellectual vintage for the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, but it's one of the most pleasurable.

Last Tasted 10/92||Experts consider 1959 to be an extraordinary vintage for DRC. This Grands Echezeaux is fully mature. The wine revealed a light to medium ruby color with considerable amber. A decadent, stunning perfume of smoked meats, herbs, oriental spices and sweet jammy fruit exhibited no signs of fatigue or oxidation. Expansive and sweet, this high alcohol, viscous wine offers extraordinary pleasure. Owners fortunate enough to have a few bottles in their cellar should make plans to drink them over the next several years. Wine Advocate.December, 1992
