Tasting notes
The 2024 Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru comprises two barrels instead of the usual five with one barrel new. It has fine concentration on the nose in the context of the vintage. The palate is well balanced with ample structure, quite solid tannins but cloaked in layers of pure black cherry and cassis fruit. Very harmonious and poised on the finish that feels very sustained, this is a sophisticated and classy RSV that might even outclass the previous vintage.

25 ares and just two pièces. 50% new oak. Cask sample. Mid ruby. Sweet cherry nose and refined floral aromas. The texture is rich, condensed and elegant, but is slightly overshadowed currently by the dominant new oak of the one new barrel. This is lovely in the immediate sweet fruit and grand cru density but needs an extra winter and racking before finding its true character. Elegant and sublime in the future. (MH)
