    March 9, 2024 - A trio of 2001 DRC. I've had bad luck with the RSV, but tonight I thought it excellent and the best of the trio. The Richebourg was very good and showed well. The Grands Echezeaux was also very good, but slightly less enticing than many previous bottles, and it's a wine I've loved over the years.

    March 1, 2024 - Muted, stem aromatics. Palate finishes drier than remembered. (492/12352)

    December 6, 2023 - Beautiful bouquet with flowers, perfume, coffee beans and red fruit. Palate was ethereal and charming but just lacking that density and structure compared to the 02 on the side tonight. 94-95

    October 4, 2023 - this was my favorite of the the three , athough its the least mature. the 9=6 is a little dense for me and the 02 is its baby brother but he 01 is as Eugene put it hight toned, bright and incredibly elegeant. Its a wine of complexity and depth, with notes of raspberry fruit, spice, a touch of leather and new oak. On the palate the wine is deep and offers lovely bright complexity, with good length and well-integrated tannins. this will only get better

Rockss and Fruit

  • By Lyle Fass
    7/20/2007 (link)

    (DRC Romanee St. Vivant) This was wonderful albeit a bit oaky. Rich and structured with loads of sweet oak and tons of ripe tannins. The nose had mashed flowers, sous bois, dirty soil, stony minerality and ripe red fruits. The structure was massive and this had enough fruit to suck up all the oak but that will be way down the road. The balance was ethereal and the length was astounding. The finish pumped out the fruit. This needs many many years to come around but has amazing fruit and stucture and will be profound once it enters its drinking window.

    (Romanée-Conti Romanée Saint-Vivant) Medium, medium-plus colour. The nose shows in a more restrained way than January - a little powdery at first - slowly becoming vanilla-tinged red fruit with a shade of pepper. The palate is a model of understated power, well covered, finely grained tannins. The nose is now starting to unlock a little, still mainly red berries, but we've moved up a gear. A real smoothie and whilst obviously outstanding it's not such a stand-out as the last tasting.

    (Romanée-Conti Romanée Saint-Vivant) By a short-head this is the darkest wine on display - though still medium, medium-plus cherry red in colour. The nose is a melange of red fruits - mainly cherry - vanilla and a nice white pepper note. Instantly obvious is the extra fat and density of fruit when compared to the previous two wines. Again the tannins are super-smooth. Much more interesting length than the Grands Échézeaux. This wine really impresses - an appreciable step-up. Given extended time in the glass the nose becomes more focused on the red fruit and shows a touch of mocha. I seem to have written the least about this wine, but it is actually the most outstanding of the six - relative to their appellations of course.
