The tasting note for 1986 Domaine de la Romanee Conti Romanee Conti Monopole Grand Cru is from Robert Parker and the score is 94 - The Romanee-Conti is very backward in 1986. The fabulous nose of oriental spices, new oak, and ripe fruit is amply displayed, but on the palate the wine is tight, hard, and very rich but still mostly inaccessible. It has a smashingly long finish and should be drinkable between 1993 and 2010. This is among the few superstars of this vintage.
