96 Points – Vinous
Bright, full red. Sensational perfumed nose shows a musky element of wildness along with aromas of dark cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, cocoa powder, brown spices and earth. A compellingly rich, horizontal wine that spreads out to coat every square millimeter of the palate. Quite firmly builteven a bit youthfully implodedbut this wine is already an attention-grabber. Finishes with a firm but refined dusting of tannins and outstanding rising length.
95 Points – Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
The Domaine de la Romanee-Conti 2015 Romanee-St-Vivant Grand Cru was showing superbly from bottle, bursting from the glass with a dramatic and expressive bouquet of rose petal, violet, raspberry and spicy red cherry that has already digested its framing of new oak. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, expansive and supple, its frame of fine-grained tannins cloaked in a deep core of vibrant fruit and only asserting themselves on the long, penetrating finish. This is a superb Romanee-St-Vivant that nips on the heels of the fabulous Richebourg this year.
