Romanée-Saint-Vivant--Vintage 1959
Côte de Nuits, Bouchard Aïné & Fils
Lot 432 levels: one 4.5cm, one 5cm, one 5.5cm and one 6cm. Lot 433 levels: five 3.5cm, four 4cm, one 4.5cm, one 5.5cm and one 6cm; slightly bin-soiled labels. Lot 434 levels: one 2.5cm, four 3.5cm, one 4cm, two 4.5cm, three 5cm and one 5.5cm; slightly bin-soiled labels
A bottle from this cellar showed a delicate nose of rose petals and below the sweet, ripeness of this vintage. The palate at first a little reticent developed in the glass - mature pinot fruit, still balanced by acidity. The peacocks tail opened as chocolatey, smokey and meaty flavours nestled a top a very lacy delicate texture. A wine of great distinction, with the charm of an old Burgundian lady. RB.
