The 2017 Romanée-Saint-Vivant Grand Cru bursts with expressive aromas of rose petal, exotic spices, peonies and raspberries, with comparatively little to suggest the savory complexity to come with bottle age. Medium to full-bodied, it's one of the ampler, more expansive wines in the range, its satiny tannins concealed in a classy core of fruit, with a deep but open-knit core and good energy, concluding with a fragrant finish.
