Opened slowly with air, delicious lemon curd and minerality. Nothing out of place. Great balance of elegance and richness that reminds me of the regular Ramonet Batard from 2010. Great with caramelized shallot tarte, Foie gras, and carrots. — 9 years ago

2000. Huge wow here. No-doubter right off the bat. Next to the 2005 Batard, and I liked this better. Big thwack of sulfur and gunpowder on the nose to go along with lemony fruit and a chicken broth type of savoriness. Richly fruited but crunchy and crystalline on the palate. This keeps reminding me of those sticky lemon drop candies with the sugar crytal coating, sweet succulent concentrated fruit but with a crunch to it. Plenty of bass tones and depth though and it just doesn't quit. This is the vintage the grapes were so perfect they printed a cross-section of one on the back label and it looked like a Mandelbrot fractal. It still manages to depict the wine pretty well. — 10 years ago

Oenomaniacs don't have pearly gates, we have Domaine de la Romanee Conti La Tache 1990. Outrageously sexy, with a celestial perfume of asian spices and underbrush and dried cherry. Eternal finish that tattoos itself on your tongue and palate. Medium to full-bodied, with startling freshness and grip for a quarter-centurion. La Tache 1990 will enthrall for another 30 to 50 years.

Fantastic Chardonnay. This is similar to a batard Montrachet. There is fruit but you still get the minerality from the wine. The 2010 is still a young wine. — 10 years ago

There is a lovely roundness to the green & yellow fruit here, that kind of old barrel character, that comes through on the palate, very smoothed off edges — 10 years ago
