Details
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Romanée-Conti 2008
Grand Cru, Côte de Nuits
In original wooden case
Tasting note: The 2008 Romanée-Conti is a seamless, totally symmetrical wine. I am not sure where the RC starts and ends, it is simply an an all-encompassing wine. With time in the glass, hints of menthol and tar emerge, adding complexity to a deep core of fruit that continues to turn darker in the glass. The 2008 is an implosive, inward wine graced with breathtaking elegance and finesse. Anticipated maturity: 2028-2048. Wine Advocate September 2011
