Note di degustazione
The 2015 Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru is lovely, revealing a beautifully pure bouquet of cassis, plum, clove, violets, rose petal and spice. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and complete, with supple, fine-grained tannins and excellent depth and dimension, with the most flesh on its bones of all the domaine's grands crus. The inherent elegance of Romanée-Saint-Vivant really plays into Charles Lachaux's hands.

Full dark red. Musky, wild scents of raspberry, espresso and mocha quickly shut down in the glass. Plump, sweet and quite powerful, with its very ripe, almost liqueur-like dark fruit flavors a bit blurred today by the wine's significant baby fat. Finishes broad, dry and very long but downright inscrutable. Today I don't find the sappy minerality or lift this wine displayed from barrel a year ago but it's stubbornly backward today and will need at least six or seven more years of cellaring.
(100% vendange entier ; 35% new oak): Healthy medium red. Very ripe aromas and flavors of raspberry, espresso and wild herbs lifted by pungent minerality. Compellingly plush, broad and full, with sappy minerality staining the palate and exciting the taste buds on the extremely long, dry finish. The wine's thick fruit blows right past the big, dusty tannins without losing its breadth. This is built for a long, graceful evolution in bottle.
