Note di degustazione
I remember being told that this was the one wine of the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti stable which was picked entirely before the vintage rains, served in magnum. Glowing mid red with a pale orange rim. Plenty of energy though. The fruit rises up and over the stem character, while remaining deliciously infused with a slight white pepper touch. This is drinking beautifully now. Enjoyed over dinner in Shanghai.

The Echezeaux is one of the best examples of this wine the domaine has made recently. Deep in color (darker actually than the 1985), this wine has an exotic, intense bouquet of plums, oriental spices, oak, and berry fruit. It is, as one would expect, the most forward of their wines, but I would still not opt for opening it until 1993-1994. This is among the few superstars of this vintage, but the 1986 is not for drinking soon-patience is most definitely required.
