Domaine de La Romanée-Conti Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru 2021

Nose that explodes with vibrant, floral scents, immediately striking the senses upon lifting the glass. The most enjoyable and polished wine from the esteemed DRC 2009 lineup, boasting a sumptuous, rounded body, effortlessly blending tertiary undertones with a elegant balance of earthy, potting soil, truffle, and savoring undertones. A masterful combination of elegance and substance, with a delightful interplay of floral, rose, and violet notes, blended by the warmth of sandalwood, clove, and a subtle, spicy undertone. A truly remarkable wine, with a lengthy, delightful tail that leaves a resonant impression. A true delight.

Gentle and alluring as I anticipated, with a light floral bouquet, richly flavored with red cherries, black fruit, strawberries, and rose petals. Effortlessly refined, with a soft nuance that adds strength and a light, airy texture. A harmonious balance and a lingering finale make it a standout. Tasted 2019.

Masterful blend of flavors, this wine is a symphony of textures and sensations, with a subtle cohesion of sweet and savory notes. The elegant nuances of earth, underbrush, and minerality add substance and finesse to the ultimately experience, making it a truly exceptional expression of Pinot Noir.
