Romanée St. Vivant 1999 Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (2 BT)

Romanée St. Vivant 1999

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti

Côte de Nuits, Grand Cru

Consecutive bottle numbers, slightly scuffed labels

Tasted in 2009 from a Jeroboam at a dinner in Hong Kong. The bouquet has notes of coffee beans with the vivid fruit. On the palate, there is great depth and potential longevity, especially in this exotic format. In magnum in 2009, almost black in colour. A dense bouquet of real power. Deep plums and smoky damsons. Intensely plummy, fat and four-square on the palate. A giant - what the French might call "un monstre". Freshness and tannin. Rich in glycerol. Can open out a lot more. Wait 20 - 50 years in magnum! Massively flavoured and constructed. Heaps of ripeness. Serena Sutcliffe, MW

我在2009年於香港一個晚宴品嚐三公升裝，花香帶咖啡豆的氣息，甚具深度和陳年潛力，尤其是大瓶裝。2009年品嚐1.5公升裝，酒液近乎黑色，濃郁的花香，煙熏李子味強勁豐滿，，可稱之為巨人，清新丹寧，甘油豐富，享用1.5公升裝還需等待20-50年！濃稠的味道加上宏大的結構，非常成熟。施慧娜 (葡萄酒大師M.W.）
