Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

Excellent levels and appearance, straw-wrapped, case banded until inspection; Excellents niveaux et apparence, emballées avec de la paille, caisse cerclée d'origine jusqu'à l'inspection

Extremely complex spicy nose, multi-layered and mysterious. Enormous, packed-down concentration on the palate. A wonderful sweet, gummy taste. A finish of pure blueberries. Peaty aftertaste plus huge fruit. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

An outstanding collection of wines from Domaine de La Romanée-Conti featuring banded OWCs, bottles, magnums, Jeroboams, and agonisingly rare Methuselahs spanning 1990 through to 2011. All the wines were acquired on release directly from the Domaine and were cellared in professional temperature-controlled storage until removed for this auction. The consignor generously granted Sotheby’s privileged access to all his cellar records, allowing our specialists to reconcile the entire collection against original invoices, cementing a transparent and traceable line of provenance. The flawless condition of these bottles is a supreme testament to the consignor’s careful stewardship, maturing these legendary wines to complete perfection.
