The red wine Échezeaux Grand Cru AOC, vintage 1998 from the winery Domaine de la Romanée-Conti has been rated in 2008 with 88 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape variety Pinot Noir from the region Cote de Nuits in France.
Medium carmine garnet, violet core, ruby red reflections, broad ochre rim. Fine herbal spice on the nose, delicate cherry confit, dried fruit aromas with tobacco undertones. Fresh structure on the palate, rather slender body, lemony finish, not quite balanced, lacks length on the finish, delicate caramel extract sweetness in the aftertaste. Not much more to be expected here. (Drink/+10)
