Details
Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, Romanée-Saint-Vivant 2007
Grand Cru, Côte de Nuits
In original wooden case
Tasting note: The Domaine’s 2007 Romanée-St.-Vivant predictably inhabits a different world – not to mention being in a different league of complexity and intrigue – from their Echézeaux, Grands Echézeaux, or Richebourg of that vintage. Peat, leather, humus, forest floor, and decadent floral perfume are joined by an oceanic saline, alkaline, kelp-tinged aspect, and these surf-and-turf aspects follow on a polished palate that – despite only the slightest nod in the direction of overt fruitiness by way of dark berries – nevertheless displays a mouth-watering juiciness to accompany its myriad mineral and organic complexities. A persistently satisfying and thought-provoking finish points to the likelihood of 12-15 years continuance. Wine Advocate #189, June 2010
