A more restrained and cooler nose reflects super-fresh and floral-inflected aromas of exceptionally spicy red and dark currant, violet, plum and tea. There is a highly refined mouthfeel to the almost lacy yet concentrated middle weight flavors that possess first-rate complexity on the balanced and wonderfully persistent if youthfully austere finish. This crunchy effort is class in a glass with its emphasis on finesse which is quite different from the evident power and punch of the Corton. Textbook built-to-age RSV.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2016 Romanée-St-Vivant Grand Cru is super, bursting from the glass with a kaleidoscopic bouquet of potpourri, red berries, cassis, peony and rose petal. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, ample and fine-boned, with tangy acids, superb concentration and an ample chassis of powdery structuring tannins, concluding with a long, fragrant finish. This is a Romanée-St-Vivant that exemplifies the intensity without the weight that distinguishes the Domaine's best wines, and it equals the fabulous 2015 rendition.
Decanter
An impressive deepish ruby in colour, this has a discreet touch of stalk with a dark berry fragrance and a hint of spicy oak. Brooding aromas in the glass are followed by seductive dark fruit flavours on the tongue, tempered by spice and an undertow of stalk. It's significantly denser and sweeter on the palate than the Corton, yet still silky to the touch. It has more evidently textured tannins and an elegant whiplash of savoury acidity on the back palate, giving a firmer structure.
