Domaine de la Romanee Conti La Tache Grand Cru MONOPOLE 2001
- While it's hard to believe, the nose has become even more elegant with age and has retained its strikingly extravagant panoply of rose petals, oriental spices, pungent tea and leather notes plus ultra-refined pinot fruit. The powerful, chiseled, pure flavors are remarkably detailed, precise, and fine with mind-bending complexity yet for all the emotional drama of this wine, it remains understated and almost aloof at the moment. The finish is dense, structured, and still moderately firm though there is nary a hard edge to be found. In short, this beauty is aristocratic in every sense. I would add that for my taste, this has arrived at its peak though it should have no trouble holding for a number of years to come. Multiple and mostly consistent notes.
