Wine Advocate-Parker :
A marine aura surrounds Bize-Leroy's 2007 Romanee-St.-Vivant as it had this year's Corton Renardes and several other of her wines, although in the present instance, that is more to be expected. Dark berries and dark, mossy, humus-rich forest floor; saline, crustacean-reduction, and oyster flesh mineral-animal savor; sweetly ripe raspberry, all follow from the nose across a sumptuously rich palate, and into a prodigious, saliva-inducing finish. A trace of warmth (rare in the present collection) doesn't detract noticeably from what is an extraordinary performance. Follow it over the next 20 years.
