Reviews & Scores
The 2006 DRC Romanee Conti was neither last nor least. It was much more sensual and elegant than the LT in the nose, with more subtlety and complexity, though. It was more toasty, with aromas of cinnamon, baked bread, stemmy goodness, black cherry and also a glazed goodness. The palate had incredible spice and foresty fun; it hit the highest note on the piano. There was a divine delicacy to the RC, its palate endless like a ballerina who never leaves its toes. Aubert noted the ‘justability’ of the RC versus the ‘masculinity’ of the RC. - JK

Here too is a very reserved yet ultra classy and refined, indeed even ethereal nose that is quite simply kaleidoscopic in its breadth, combining red, blue and black fruits with spice, earth, minerality and a hint of underbrush that stands aside for the perfectly balanced, pure and stylish medium full flavors that are very firmly but not aggressively structured while delivering flat out unbelievable length yet all the while remaining completely understated in personality. As are all the very best vintages of RC, this is spherical with nothing out of place and this will age effortlessly for decades. The La Tâche is truly spectacular but there is simply another dimension of depth present here. A wine of sheer class and the epitome of the phrase 'power without weight'. (Drink starting 2026). - BH

Saturated deep red-ruby. Subdued but pristine aromas of raspberry and minerals. Densely packed and sappy, with a dusty impression of extract. But less sweet on the back than La Tache. From another barrel: Less oaky and more minerally. Can't match the thickness or structure of the '05 but this boasts superb aromatic purity and cut and possesses plenty of volume without any heaviness. The perfumed flavors of red fruits, spices, minerals and flowers fill the retronasal passage on the back end. - VM
