Reviews of 1998 Romanee Conti, Domaine de la Romanee St Vivant Pinot Noir
91 points, Burghound April 2005 A beautifully spicy nose is finally beginning to open to reveal wonderfully complex and spicy aromatics and fruit that is still 100% primary. The medium full, rich, spicy and intense flavors possess ripe tannins underpinning the considerable structural spine and it's clear that this will definitely require another 7 to 10 years in the cellar.
90 points, Stephen Tanzer April 2001 Saturated ruby-red. Sappy, rather wild aromas of raspberry, smoke, tar and mulch; more deeply pitched than the Grands-Echezeaux but still quite tangy. Fat, sweet and full, but less precise and lively than the Grands-Echezeaux; flavors of redcurrant and iron. Fairly rich wine, finishing with good breadth and dusty, slightly dry tannins. I'd be a bit more optimistic about the ultimate potential of this wine if it were more primary today.

The domaine has 25 hectares of vineyards, all Grand Crus, including the jewel in the crown, the 1.8 hectare monopole of Romanée-Conti. Yields are mind numbingly low and the winemaking is traditional and perfectionist."
