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.
