2020 Romanee St Vivant Les Quatre Journaux

Tasting notes
This red is saturated with succulent black cherry, kirsch, graphite and tobacco aromas and flavors, all wrapped in a cloak of toasty, spicy oak. Offers a core of fruit that emerges as the oak subsidies, yet this will need time to fully integrate.

An enormously dense and refined wine that expresses all that great red Burgundy is about. Gigantic concentration, but stunning balance that really blows your mind. Spectacular finish that leaves you wondering what to do next. Drinkable now, but best from 2024.
About the producer

The Latour family has been growing vines in Burgundy since at least 1731. Their négociant business – today one of the region’s biggest names – was founded in 1797. Still family-owned today, the company owns 48 hectares of vines, 27 of which are Grand Cru, as well as its own cooperage.
