Domaine Romanee Conti St. Vivant

The 2022 Romanee St. Vivant Grand Cru is a real head-turner. What a wine! As is so often the case, Romanee St. Vivant is not an obvious wine, rather it is a Burgundy of detail, of understatement, of total class. The aromatics alone are mesmerizing. Silky tannins wrap around a core of red-toned fruit, mint, white pepper, blood orange and exotic spice.
