Note di degustazione
Vernonique Drouhin was on hand to offer commentary on her wines. The 1964 Romané St. Vivant (magnum) was slightly oxidized and showed some elements of volatility but was impressive for its density. The 1961 Romanée St. Vivant “Marey-Monge”(magnum) offered up menthol, licorice and sweet baking spices in a delicate, ethereal style that lingered on the palate. Like all of the wines being served, these 1960s magnums were shipped over from the estate for this dinner, and needless to say, they were a treat to taste. Both wines were lovely with the Chef Humm’s lobster, and found a lovely counterpoint with the mushrooms and black truffles in the dish.
