Tasting notes
The 2013 Romanée-Saint-Vivant has enthralling transparency and clarity on the nose with perfumed black cherry, bilberry and cold stone scents, perhaps almost like Richebourg in style! The palate is medium-bodied with saturated, silky smooth tannins, luscious red cherry and pomegranate fruit with great purity on the long and tender finish. This is very tempting and sensual. Put a padlock and key on this for several years.

Dense. Dark crimson. So racy and complete. Completely seductive! Real juice and such beauty in the mouth. Complete. Saveur and vibrancy. Really fantastic. So clean. Layer of glorious perfume on top of tip-top fruit. Lovely wine fighting its corner. Peacock's tail. (JR)
