Details
Romanée-Saint-Vivant--Vintage 1990
Côte de Nuits, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti
Lot 327 distributor tax paid neck tags
Lot 327 signs of old seepage, two slightly protruding corks, lightly corroded capsules
Lot 328 slight overfill seepage, three slightly raised corks
Both lots in original wooden cases, 328 banded prior to inspection
"Extremely rich and ripe with explosive aromas of Vosne spice, earth and only a touch of secondary nuance followed by big, indeed even robust flavors that show good muscle but no rusticity and while this displays only a bit of the classic RSV velvet, this character will undoubtedly become more pronounced with age as there is plenty of mid-palate density. Quite long and still very much of a baby, the '90 RSV is most promising. I would try again in 2010 but this will live for 30 years, perhaps longer. Consistent notes." BH
