ROMANEE ST. VIVANT 1993 DOMAINE DE LA ROMANEE-CONTI |

Romanée St. Vivant 1993 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Côte de Nuits, Grand Cruu. 2x3cm, 1 bottle from different importer, 2 slightly bin scuffed labels, 1 with sign of old seepageAt 16 years old from magnum. A lovely sweet, Pinot Noir nose. A bouquet that now shows the beginning of maturity. Cedary smokiness. This melts in the mouth with total softness. Some cocoa and coffee and then the cassis kicks in. Fresh acidity too, on the finish. Not as 'polished' and breedy as the RSVs of the 21st century, but a very tempting wine, now ready to drink. Serena Sutcliffe, MW4 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
