Great start of a fantastic event.
More elegance than weight - expressive, pure; liked it better than the RSV

Clearly the most complete and interesting of the three 1991 DRC's we had. LT nose of rose petals. Sweet concentrated flavors with good lengths.
Beautiful body and length. Elegant sweetness. Ahead of the LT 78
Again, great LT nose and most complete of the DRC's that night. True to its terroir. Not sure if I would keep this much longer.
Lovely nose, spice. Felt not sufficient fruit left, and thought too much acidity. Good wine but not as complete as the LT and Richebourg on this event.
Expressive LT nose - and I tought more complete than the 1978. Great length.
Much better than what I had expected from this vintage. Great balance and seems in its sweet spot now.
Really amazing LT nose, rose petals, a bit of spice, great purity. Thought the wine did, however, not give what the nose promised, a bit thin.
Fresh, almost exotic in its complexity, long, beautiful bottle.
Minaraly and laser-sharp. Gerat acidity and much cleaner/focused than the 2002.
Beautiful wine, with great aromas, but feels quite ripe
