The Romanee St Vivant has a sumptuous, imposing appearance and is a bright ruby colour. The bouquet has a radiant richness passing from black cherries to raspberry jelly and blackberry cordial with violets. With age it develops notes of undergrowth and leather. This immense wine has expressive intensity and depth. It is smooth but not flabby, silky but structured, dense but elegant. Everything mingles and links together to create sublime complexity.

I love this domain. But this wine was not ready. Memorable RSV nose upon opening, but it then closed up. Let it breath for a few hours but tannins dominated. I know this will be great but wine needs another 7-10 years.
