The nose is a kaleidoscope of ripe raspberry, dark cherry, rose petal, peony, blood orange, spice, toast, and incense. It reveals an exotically broad range of highly perfumed floral, spice, tea, and incense-like nuances. On the palate, it is simultaneously opulent and weightless, like liquid velvet with a 3-D texture, pristine red fruit, savory minerality, and filigree tannins of extraordinary finesse. It offers layers upon layers of juicy and vibrant fruit, with mind-bending inner energy and balance, caressing the palate with sensual and filigree qualities. 【A 100-point, profoundly ethereal and complex expression from the legendary Romanée-Conti Grand Cru, epitomizing truly great Pinot Noir.】
