Description

Romanee St. Vivant 2018
Domaine de la Romanee Conti
Bottle (3)

The La Cave Collection. Wines from a Texas Collector, all pristinely stored since release in a commercial wine storage facility

"Here the nose is brooding to the point of being almost mute and requires aggressive swirling to gradually reveal plum liqueur, purple fruit and a variety of subtle spice and floral wisps. There is terrific punch and detail to the middle weight flavors that aren't quite as concentrated or muscular as those of the Grands Echézeaux yet there is still impressive power on the wonderfully long finish. This is somewhat less refined than it usually is, and not quite as spicy either, though by contrast it is more tannic and a wine that also should develop slowly over the next 25 to 30 years. I found the 2018 to be almost atypical in the sense that it's much more powerful and imposing than usual and it doesn't have the refinement either though that may well come with time in bottle. Patience strongly advised." (95 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound, Jan. 2021)
