DRC, Romanee Saint Vivant other_regions (55+ year old vines)

(55+ year old vines)

pure and highly complex red berry fruit aromas nuanced by a hint of iron oxide (a rusty earth character) that precedes rich

Vibrant and shimmering on the palate

elegant and lush

The 2000 was roaring from the glass when I tasted it in the estates Cote Rotie cellars

DRC, Romanee Saint Vivant other_regions (55+ year old vines)Gorgeous, sexy, opulently perfumed fruit followed by medium weight, intense, backward, beautifully textured flavors underpinned by solid but ripe tannins and the same floral note that many of these '95s display. This is really quite lovely with a really impressive purity of expression and should age well for years. 92 try from 2010+
