Score 92/100 · Pierre Rovani
The boldly spicy, plummy black fruit-filled nose of the 2000 Romanee-St.-Vivant leads to a highly-extracted, intense personality. Medium-bodied as well as uncharacteristically inky, this blackberry and cassis-laden wine suffers somewhat from a rough, woody finish. It is unquestionably outstanding, with loads of roasted black fruits, yet one has to wonder what would have been achieved with a softer hand in vinification. Drink it between 2005 and 2010.
