The medium to dark ruby-colored 1999 Romanee-St.-Vivant exhibits violet and blackberry aromas. This medium to full-bodied wine is rich and flavorful. It is loaded with cherries, raspberries, blueberries, and juicy, super-ripe blackberries. It had been bottled only 72 hours prior to being tasted, which may well account for an ever-so-slight disjointedness. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2011.
