Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru--Vintage 1990
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Excellent appearance. Bottle nos. 154 and 155
Tasting Note: Noted at the first St-Vivant vertical; at the Domaine, November 1995: fairly deep, soft, yet firm and rich looking; a wonderfully harmonious nose, complete, touch of vanillin and 'sweaty' tannins, considerable depth, becoming floral and , as I have noted before with DRC, after an hour, a whiff of strawberry. Fairly full-bodied, crisp, yet soft, rounded, with richness masking the tannins. Great length. 'Great potential'.......Most recently, at the second of the St-Vivant verticals: still deep, fairly intense; perfect Pinot, harmonious; sweet, mouthfilling, rich, complete, masked tannin - the easiest to drink of the younger vintages.Last tasted Oct 2001 ***(**) Great wine. Now - 2012 M.B.
