1990 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti La Tache Grand Cru Monopole, Cote de Nuits, France
It has been over a year since my last post on my blog, and I have been missing writing. As I no longer have time to mess around and write super long, detailed posts, I will plunge directly into this blog's main subject of interest: wine!
I will start by digging into some old notes I always wanted to post but never really had the time to. Therefore, you may see various posts with wines I tasted at different periods, not necessarily in alphabetical or even chronological order. I wish I could have a website as organized and clean as eparker.com with listings and so on, but for now, I will just deliver these notes in a terrible mess and chaos, just as they come.
1990 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti La Tache Grand Cru Monopole, Cote de Nuits, France (price range from 3,200-4,200 Euros a bottle)
Beautiful robe in the glass with a light, youthful, bright garnet color of medium intensity. Mushroom, earth, and soil mingled with delicious red and dark cherry fruit aromas enhanced with floral notes. The palate showed good balance and overall structure but seemed a little tired in fruit and texture, tasting slightly older than it should and a bit faded. The finish also presented some sharpness that was slightly out of place. Tasted on 20.10.2012
Cheers! Santé!
