Romanée-St-Vivant Robert Arnoux 1996 is a Grand Cru Burgundy from the renowned Romanée-St-Vivant vineyard in Vosne-Romanée. The wine exhibits a deep ruby colour, revealing its age and concentration. On the nose, expect an intricate blend of black cherry, forest floor and nuanced spice. The palate offers a robust texture supported by well-integrated tannins that have mellowed over time. This expression showcases the domain`s shift under Pascal Lachaux, reflecting a darker fruit profile unique to this bottle, with vibrant acidity still providing tension and lift.
