What the critics say
92 WAWine Advocate, Pierre Rovani, 30-06-2003
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. Madame Lalou Bize-Leroy liked both the 2000 and 2001 vintages, stating that she was “rather pleased with the 2001s as they will bring lots of joy to those who drink them young” and that the 2000s “are candied fruit, reduction of fruit, the essence of fruit.” Many Burgundians chose to bottle their 2001 early in order to “trap” the fruit in the bottle, but Bize-Leroy beat them all to the punch, having completed the bottling process by early September, 2002. Typically an early bottler, Mme. Bize-Leroy felt that the 2001s would lose their fruit to either oxidation or the required sulfuring if left in the barrel for a longer elevage. Overall, Domaine Leroy’s 2001s are a success, though many were found to reveal stemmy, woody tannin in their finishes. If this characteristic melts away quickly, my scores on those wines will appear overly conservative.
