Description
Romanée Conti 2012
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru
In 2015, a completely different nose from La Tâche, intriguing, mystic, smoky, briary and full of wild "maquis" herbs. Absolutely amazing. A marked taste of dark chocolate on the finish, with beautiful fresh acidity and a total refusal to fade away, five minutes after tasting (and swallowing, sorry) it. There is an astonishing scent of a wood-burning fireplace in the empty glass. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
