ROMANEE CONTI 2009 DOMAINE DE LA ROMANEE-CONTI |

Romanée Conti 2009 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Côte de Nuits, Grand CruBt #04433-04435Initially, less exuberant on the nose than La Tâche but then the subtlety of all the scents pours in, blueberries and flowers. A 'lightness of being' on the palate in terms of refinement and finesse. Such sweet persistence, all lace and silk while La Tâche is damask. A great compote of black fruit with an ethereal finish. One floats away on a cloud..... Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 98+3 bts (owc)Estimates are per lot
