ROBERT PARKER ” This has a vigorous energetic bouquet that is compact at first, opening up with time offering crushed rose petal, orange essence and a tincture of blueberry. Unlike the Richebourg that is a little sulky in the glass, the Romanee Saint Vivant seems to blossom and succour energy from the air. The tannins are very smooth and supple, the mid-palate caressing and sensual. Exquisite balance here, effortless towards the finish that just glides across the mouth. This is a beautiful Romanee Saint Vivant. Tasted January 2011. “
