Community Tasting Notes 5

    November 6, 2020 - Transferred from tasting glass into Zalto during Ficofi dinner and that made a big difference. The nose open and quite true to the vintage with a little stemminess but also the RC typical chemical box / hoisin aromas. I was most impressed by the length and intensity, not fruit driven but beautifully complex aromas.

    November 5, 2020 - This was disappointing from the start to finish of dinner. Bettered tonight by the 05 la tache and the 00 RSV. Muted nose that never really opened up. I tasted tobacco and cedar. Quite flat throughout. We were hoping it may come out of its shell by the end of the evening but never did. I heard there were better bottles.

    February 11, 2015 - Any chance to have a bottle of Romanée-Conti is special! This bottle had an intense nose with almost a tobacco, pickled fruit and cedar note to it, also classic hoisin and spice. Lovely integration of fruit, perfect balance and purity here. Pleasing dimension despite it being only a middle weight contender. (HC NY)

    July 25, 2008 - Spectacular wine. Warm, medium red color with slight browning at the edges. Incredible nose of flowers, earth and spice. Silk on the palate...spices and red fruit...beautiful with a minute-long finish. Is this worth several thousand dollars? Probably not on a purely qualitative basis. But there is no mistaking it...this is a beautifully made wine...elegant in the extreme, with beautiful complexity. I may never have another...but this was magic.
