"...unbelievably complex and perfumed mix of spiced tea, smoked beef jerky and abundant earth followed by incredibly rich, dense, round and velvety full-bodied, beautifully nuanced flavors that completely coat the palate and deliver a stunningly long finish that simply goes on and on. There is massive richness yet the wine sacrifices no detail and the voice of Romanée-Conti comes through clearly as there is breed to burn and yet for all the generosity and velvet, it retains a certain subtle reserve and perfect balance."
