Description

Romanée Conti 2005

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

METH # 2 out of a total production of 8, slightly scuffed wax capsule, original wooden case opened by Sotheby's

Tighter less open nose at this stage than La Tâche which is always the case. Notes of tobacco and liquorice. So elegant and streamlined. A completely different texture from La Tâche. A huge concentrated kernel, or centre, of cassis. Tight-knit heart. Still guarding its best secrets for us. Will be a landmark Romanée-Conti. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
