2017 Lucien Le Moine Romanée-Saint-Vivant 1er Cru

A ripe and very spicy nose features notes of sandalwood, tea, rose petal and a hint of lilac. I very much like the sleek, even satiny, texture to the nicely vibrant flavors that conclude in a slightly drying and short finish. This may well age out but it's a bit awkward today.
