The 2013 Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru has a rounded, fruit-driven, almost sensual bouquet with plenty of ripe strawberry and maraschino scents with fine mineralité. The palate is focused and refined, very harmonious, more linear than the 2012 with a precise, elegant finish. There is a sense of completeness here that is very engaging and bodes well once this ebullient RSV is bottled.
