Located within the commune of Vosne-Romanée, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti is the legendary Burgundy estate that produces some of the most exclusive and sought-after wines in the world. Only grand cru wines are produced by DRC, including this Romanée-Saint-Vivant, made from their 5.29-hectare plot. Unanimously regarded as a wonderful vintage, 1985 produced red grapes that were perfectly ripened and full of elegance.

Whereas the 1985 Échézeaux is a floral, lifted wine, the 1985 Romanée St. Vivant presents a much deeper, muscular expression of fruit, with fewer floral/savory notes and tons of sheer power. There is plenty of intensity in the glass. At the same time, though, the 1985 possesses elements of rusticity that are impossible to miss. Overall, the 1985 is a fairly burly St. Vivant with less polish and finesse than is common today, but it should drink well for years to come. Antonio Galloni1st December 2013
