Description

Romanee St. Vivant 2008
Domaine de la Romanee Conti
banded owc
Bottle (6)


"As one would reasonably expect, this is notably more elegant with a pure, delicate and layered nose of floral notes, in particular rose and violet, along with clove, anise and sandalwood nuances that gracefully introduce rich, forward and generous flavors that retain a wonderful sense of tension, detail and refinement on the precise, textured and focused finish that offers tremendous length. For all its considerable attributes however, this remains an understated wine of harmony, grace and impeccable balance. A stunner of a wine." (95 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound, Jan. 2011)

"There is a definite green tea character to the nose that has a vague pyrazine-like quality on the otherwise pretty, fresh, spicy and airy red berry and floral suffused aromas. There is a lovely and refined mid-palate mouth feel to the energetic middle weight flavors that culminate in a borderline drying and slightly short finish. I have experienced some bottle variation with this wine over the years as this particular bottle, while perfectly enjoyable, was a bit disappointing." (92 pts. Allen Meadows, Burghound, April 2022)
