one of the greatest wines of the world and the most perfect as well as the most expensive of Burgundy, the celebrated Romanée-Conti with a forceful bouquet of violet mixed with a scent of cherry, a lively and profound ruby robe, a suaveness of exceptional finesse ... [the] Archbishop of Paris in 1780 declared that this precious blood of the vine was 'velvet and satin in bottles' Breeding. It has the most breed of any wine in the world ...

Richebourg is the more massive and Le Romanée[-Conti] finer Sense for me this perfume! Breathe this bouquet! Taste it! Drink it! But never try to describe it! Impossible to give an account of such a delicacy with words! To drink Romanée-Conti is equivalent to experiencing an orgasm at once in the mouth and in the nose."
