Floral nose with vanilla and baked plum. There’s something primal here too, that’s flinty and mineral-driven. This complements the strawberry and black cherry fruit nicely, which in turn leads to notes of smoke (an open fire the morning after), herbs and liquorice. Ethereal.

The 2016 Romanée-Conti Grand Cru is a worthy successor to the profound 2015, wafting from the glass with aromas of wild berries, violets, peony, dark chocolate, cinnamon and exotic spices. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, ample and satiny, with an ineffable sense of completeness, searing concentration without weight, a vibrant, indeed animating line of acidity, and a long, expansive finish that concludes with a judicious touch of mouthwatering bitterness. Wines like this are the foundation of the Domaine de la Romanée-Conti’s reputation.
