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.
