Unfortunately I do not have much experience with St Vivant😉.My nose is assaulted by waves of red fruit, earth, roses and lots of spice. In the mouth juicy waves of red and black cherries are cut short by firm tannins.
Lots of hints, but no conclusions.

Entering the early stages of its drinking window and what will be long life ahead, it was extremely giving showing what was an incredible balance of power and elegance. Seesawing back and forth between the two, seducing with its sweet floral and spice aromas and caressing the palate with its lovely silky texture and pure, rich and deep fruit. This is a wine with a truly exciting future and what a thrill to taste at this stage.

The 5th of 6 Grand Crus from Vosne Romanee in the 2016 vintage. Tasted blind. Darkish Ruby in colour. Lovely aromas of cherry, raspberry and that GC Vosne note of violets. A medium to full bodied delicious palate. Intoxicating - the epitome of Pinot Noir but tough to stand out in this company. Will outlive most of us.

So nice to go back over 30 years. Acidity basically gone but still has beautiful fruit. Drink up but you'll really enjoy it if you love aged Burgundy.
