Discounters reinvent the wine game…with passion of course
What are we supposed to make of THIS offering from Garagiste the star email purveyor of great “found” wines?
2008 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti ‚ÄúLe Montrachet‚Äù – $2680.40 For those of us fortunate enough to taste young vintages of this wine, the 2008 is a real stand-out. It combines the endless fruit sap that DRC obtains from this storied vineyard with terrific natural acidity and a myriad of other traits (it also appears to be less oaked and lower in alcohol than in the past ‚Äì a very good thing for this taster). Should age for 20-30+ years.
