2013 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti Grands Echezeaux Grand Cru Spanish black olives and black truffles"Healthy dark red. An initial note of reduction dissipated to reveal sexy scents of raspberry, blueberry, smoky minerals and Oriental spices. Densely packed and vibrant, with concentrated berry fruit accented by pepper and spices from the stems. Firm tannins will support slow development in bottle. There's way more inner mouth tension and clat here than I found in the Echzeaux. An outstanding vintage for this bottling." 94 100 Vinous
