Louis Latour Romanee-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru Les Quatre Journaux 2016 (6x75cl)
This is a grand cru that shows its intensity and complexity and greatness from the beginning. Blackberry, licorice and stone aromas. Full body and a center palate that shows ripe fruit and full richness. Then the tannins kick in. Great wine. Drink in 2024.
Good though the Chambertin is, the Romanée-St-Vivant is the king of the cellar in 2016, soaring from the glass with a pure and creamy bouquet of black cherry, currant, candied peel and subtle spice. Expansive, full-bodied and concentrated, framed by fine but firm tannins, this is really a very serious rendition of what is arguably the finest plot of this great grand cru vineyard.
