The Domaine de la Romanée-Conti Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru 2018 exemplifies the ethereal beauty and unparalleled finesse of this legendary producer’s wines. Crafted from the biodynamically farmed vineyard that shares its name, this wine represents the culmination of DRC’s unwavering commitment to quality and terroir expression. The 2018 vintage, characterized by a warm and sunny growing season, produced opulent yet balanced wines with extraordinary depth and intensity.

On the nose, this Romanée-Saint-Vivant offers an exquisite symphony of red and black fruits—wild strawberry, black cherry, and red currant—complemented by floral nuances of rose petals and violets. Subtle undertones of Asian spices, forest floor, and fine cedar add complexity. On the palate, it is both powerful and elegant, with a seamless structure that weaves silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and a mineral core into an extraordinary tapestry. The finish is remarkably long, with lingering notes of fruit and spice that reflect the pedigree of its Grand Cru origin.

This wine is a masterpiece of balance, offering accessibility in its youth while promising decades of evolution in the cellar. Pair it with refined dishes such as roast squab, filet mignon with truffle sauce, or mushroom-based preparations to elevate its nuanced flavors. The 2018 Romanée-Saint-Vivant showcases the precision, depth, and timeless beauty that have cemented Domaine de la Romanée-Conti’s reputation as the pinnacle of Burgundy winemaking.

BH 95
"Here the nose is brooding to the point of being almost mute and requires aggressive swirling to gradually reveal plum liqueur, purple fruit and a variety of subtle spice and floral wisps. There is terrific punch and detail to the middle weight flavors that aren't quite as concentrated or muscular as those of the Grands Echézeaux yet there is still impressive power on the wonderfully long finish. This is somewhat less refined than it usually is, and not quite as spicy either, though by contrast it is more tannic and a wine that also should develop slowly over the next 25 to 30 years. I found the 2018 to be almost atypical in the sense that it's much more powerful and imposing than usual and it doesn't have the refinement either though that may well come with time in bottle. Patience strongly advised."

"The 2018 Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru has a detailed bouquet of dark cherries, blueberry and pressed iris, an undertow of sea spray and petrichor emerging with time. Less floral than previous vintages, it is nevertheless extremely well focused. The palate is medium-bodied and you are immediately struck by the harmony of this wine. Elegant and discreetly spiced toward the finish. I would just like to see more persistence manifest during the remainder of its élevage." -Vinous

"Romanée-St-Vivant went through malolactic later than the other DRC Grands Crus and was a little more backward and reductive when I tasted it from barrel. Fermented with 90% whole clusters and aged in new wood, it's paler than its stablemates, with refined red berry fruits, focused, mineral-edged acidity and a racy, chalky finish. Transparent winemaking from a site that often produces the domaine's most elegant wine."
