Description

Romanée St. Vivant 2012

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

Average age of vines: 37 years. Total production 1148 cases. Yield: 24 hl/ha. Harvest: 28th and 29th September. In 2015, more closed on the nose than the two Echézeaux. Keen, a touch minty (its signature) and wild thyme. That lovely piercing fruit of Romanée St. Vivant, not "thick" like Grands Echézeaux, but minerally, beautifully balanced and with great finesse of texture. Serena Sutcliffe, MW
