Tasted at the La Romanée vertical at Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair. The 1947 La Romanée Grand Cru was bottled by "C. Marey & Cte Liger-Belair" and came from the cellar of Don Stott. It has a very clear colour, fully mature with a wide tawny rim. The nose is very pure. It is not complex or profound, yet it continues to translate the essence of Pinot Noir and the terroir so in that respect, job done. The palate is medium-bodied with appreciable weight in the mouth, just a touch of spice and better backbone than either the colour of the aromatics suggest. What compromises this wine is that compared to the best coeval vintages of La Romanée it feels rather static. I concurred with another participant at this tasting that a chateau bottling would be "interesting." Tasted June 2015.
