Product Description
WS95 "Offers classic green and leafy R-C aromas, with sweet berry and cherry underneath. This is intense, sappy, silky, rich and long, featuring berry notes that are bright and pure. Shows terrific persistence on the refined finish. -- Non-blind 2004 DRC tasting" BS for WS Dec 2012
Allen Meadows for BurgHound writes, "A supremely beautiful nose with a stunningly mélange of spice notes, floral notes, particularly violets, red and black berry fruit aromas plus nuances of earth, game and smoke combine to perfectly complement the reserved, pure and unbelievably precise and pure medium full flavors underpinned by sophisticated tannins and huge length. One of the aspects that I most admire about a great RC is that while other wines have class, Romanée-Conti defines the term. The other aspect that I find to be perhaps the most remarkable of all is the wine's ability to aggregate attributes unlike any other. Like the '04 La Tâche, this isn't the greatest vintage of Romanée-Conti I have ever tasted but it is one of the very finest in terms of the delicacy and harmony of expression. And also like the La Tâche, this may very well surprise to the upside if it adds weight. The finest of the DRC '04s with perfect balance." BT 94-96Pts Published: Jan 01, 2006
