Romanée Conti 1996 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Côte de Nuits, Grand Cruu. 1x4cm, 2 slight signs of old seepage, wine comes from different importersThe total experience in this great vintage. The bouquet has everything. Violets, peat, raspberries. A mind-blasting total taste. A huge mouthful of wild cherries with plummy fruit, liquorice, all backed up by terrific tannin and ace acidity. Peat and black cherries on the finish. Monumental wine - a pillar of the vinous century in Burgundy. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA (96-98)3 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
