LA TACHE 1943 DOMAINE DE LA ROMANEE-CONTI
Estimates are per lot
La Tâche 1943 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru
u. 1x4cm, 1x4.5cm, 1x5cm, 1 bottle with different vintage printing on label, damp-stained, scuffed, stained, torn, and partially missing labels, 1 heavily damp-stained label, 2 torn and partially missing labels, one label missing '19' of vintage, labels stamped 'Interdiction d'Exporter aux USA et UK,' cracked wax capsules with slight signs of seepage on top, excellent color and clarity
Over twenty years older than the 1966, but what a family resemblance. Extraordinarily rich and essence-like bouquet, and yet pure 'lace'. Earthy, full, dense taste. More weight than the 1966 (1943 was a great year in Burgundy somewhat camouflaged by the war). Rich undergrowth, cherry kernels. Brilliant freshness. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
