Domaine de la Romanee-Conti, Romanée St. Vivant 2010 97/100 Parker

95-97 / 100 Robert Parker
The 2010 Romanee St. Vivant is dazzling. An exotic mosaic of sweet spices, red berries, dried flowers and mint bursts onto the palate in this viscerally thrilling, captivating Romanee St. Vivant. The 2010 is notable for so many attributes, but one that stands out is the sheer beauty and texture of the breathtaking finish. Anticipated maturity: 2030-2050.

Offers glorious aromas of rose, currant, strawberry, cherry and spice. Though filigreed and silky, this has a very solid, even strict, underpinning of acidity and tannins. This sings, and will become a superb bottle in time.—Non-blind 2010 DRC tasting (March 2013). Best from 2018 through 2040.

NB vintage. Dense, rich and seductive on nose. Firm and briary on the finish. Very grown-up and long term with a skein of tannin. Lots of lovely juice in the middle. Energetic finish and massive vivacity. But this really does need time. Will it get it?

94 / 100 Allen Meadow
This is certainly one of, if not the, most floral wine in the range in 2011 with the possible exception of the Richebourg. The extraordinarily elegant and airy nose is positively kaleidoscopic in its sheer breadth of spice elements that combine with the stunningly pure red and black raspberry fruit aromas that are liberally laced with rose petal nuances. The lacy, intense and beautifully precise middle weight flavors are harmonious and impeccably well-balanced on the fabulously long and silky finish where a touch of youthful asperity is present. This should be terrific in time.
