La Romanée, Domaine du Comte Liger-Belair 2002

Tasting Notes

Classic medium ruby color. This is a backward, tight and reserved wine with an adroit trace of wood framing stunningly elegant and dazzlingly complex black fruit aromas that lead to sappy, mouth coating, powerful and very deep flavors of astonishing richness and length. But it's the seamless harmony and sheer class that puts this at another level. In short, this is a breathtakingly fine wine that exhibits exquisite balance and an almost spiritual calm - it will be capable of 30+ years in the cellar and 50 is not out of the question.
