A rare opportunity to purchase a bottle of DRC Romanée-Conti 2015 with excellent provenance. We have two notes, both from December 2016.
My fellow Warwick University graduate Neal Martin wrote: The 2015 Romanée-Conti Grand Cru was picked on 10 September at 22 hectolitres per hectare, the lowest yield alongside the 2015 Corton. It offers ethereal scents of pure red berry fruit, wet limestone, truffle and a touch of undergrowth all with crystalline delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with a beautiful line of acidity, tightly wound and very focused with not a single hair out of place. You could argue that it does not fan out in the same fashion, with similar intent as the La Tâche, preferring to remain comparatively linear and correct. Rather, this Romanée-Conti is a masterclass of precision and persistence, the shimmering red fruit lingering in the mouth for a ridiculous amount of time, not that you complain. It is a brilliant Pinot Noir. Drink: 2025-2065.

The breathtakingly beautiful nose is restrained to the point of being almost mute yet aggressive swirling eventually coaxes an exotically broad-range of highly perfumed floral, spice, tea and incense-like nuances. The opulently textured, concentrated and equally mineral-driven flavors accentuate the perfumed character of the nose as the inner mouth perfume just adds to the what is roughly akin to a sensorial assault, all wrapped in a finish that lasted for seemingly several days as I had no trouble recalling it over the next 48 hours. If theres any imperfection that I could detect, there is a hint of warmth but otherwise, this is pretty close to perfect. The word spectacular comes to mind but then again so does brilliant, fabulous and splendid. You get the idea, pretty damn remarkable.
