Tasting note

Vosne-Romanée Pinot Noir should give this 2020 Romanée-Saint-Vivant a perfume of ripe red cherry, raspberry and rose, with an earthy note beneath. Expect a finely textured palate, supple at first yet supported by fresh acidity and delicate tannins that build a graceful frame. The listed peak extends through 2058 and the horizon to 2071; its finish should linger with floral detail, red fruit and a quiet spice that gradually deepens.
