The score 96 for 2010 DRC Richebourg is from Burghound, Allen Meadows and this is the tasting note - The restrained and markedly cool nose displays an impressive variety of floral and spice hints that add a sense of elegance to the stunningly complex ripe dark berry fruit and plum aromas. While this is almost always a muscular and at times even robust wine young, in 2010 it offers a truly remarkably sophisticated mouth feel because like the RSV, the tannins are refined and fine-grained. Moreover, there is the same knockout complexity that the nose displays on the intensely mineral-driven finish and overall, this is a complete wine of simply fantastic length. It also offers a completely different, and much more masculine, experience than the RSV. I can't wait to try both in 15 to 20 years. Note that this is evolving glacially and I have extended my suggested drinking window by several years. The score 98 for 2010 DRC La Tache is from Burghound, Allen Meadows and this is the tasting note - An ultra-pure, cool and remarkably elegant mix of wonderfully spicy, red and blue pinot fruit, red currant and wild red berries that are openly floral in character. The overtly stony flavors are shaped by notably firm yet extremely fine tannins and while there is ample power and vibrancy, the palate feel is all silk and satin. To be sure, this is a big wine with impressive concentration but 2010 is a vintage for LT of refinement and polish if not exactly finesse. Even so, it's still going to require some 20 to 25 years of cellar time before it reaches its full majority but when it does, it will be considered one of the all-time great vintages for this incredibly storied wine. The score 94 for 2010 DRC Echezeaux is from Burghound, Allen Meadows and this is the tasting note - Exuberant and ripe spicy purple fruit also exhibits distinct floral and warm earth nuances that go on to suffuse the rich and finely detailed medium-bodied flavors that possess excellent underlying tension before terminating in a focused, intense and gorgeously long finish. This is pure silk and lace but the really impressive aspect of this wine is just how much depth it has. A sublime knockout, particularly by the usual standards of this wine. The score 95 for 2010 DRC Grands Echezeaux is from Burghound, Allen Meadows and this is the tasting note - A soaring and gorgeously complex and highly spiced nose is distinctly cool and overtly floral in character with its notes of violet and rose petal, hoisin, soy and clove along with black pinot fruit, cassis and plum. The impressively intense and very serious broad-shouldered flavors possess outstanding mid-palate concentration before culminating in a strikingly long and palate staining finish. This stunningly long effort is quite fine by the usual standards of the appellation because while this is certainly muscular, it's taut and sleek rather than robust. Not surprisingly at only 9 years of age, this beauty is still very much on the way up and is a wine that will need at least another decade to arrive at its peak and 15 more years would not surprise me. The score 97 for 2010 DRC Romanee St Vivant is from Burghound, Allen Meadows and this is the tasting note - An airy and noticeably cool nose of ultra-elegant spice, floral and herbal nuances add fine complexity to the kaleidoscopically layered red currant and plum suffused aromas. This mouth feel is wonderfully refined mainly thanks to the ultra-fine grained tannins supporting the silky middle weight flavors that culminate in a wonderfully long, highly complex and still youthfully austere finale. Despite the tightly wound structure the overall impression of the mouth feel is one of delicacy and class. This is still very much on the way up yet the overall impression is so inviting that it is almost irresistible. In a word, the '10 RSV is as good as any vintage produced by the Domaine this century.
