Louis Latour Romanee St. Vivant Grand Cru 'Les Quatre Journaux' 2023
This prestigious red wine comes from France, specifically originating from the iconic Romanée Saint Vivant Grand Cru appellation within the Vosne Romanée village of the Côte de Nuits region in Burgundy. Founded in 1797, Maison Louis Latour is one of Burgundy's most historic and revered family run négociant éleveurs, now under the stewardship of Florent Latour and the eleventh generation of the family. The 'Les Quatre Journaux' parcel is an exceptional plot located adjacent to the legendary Romanée-Conti vineyard, and its name references an old Burgundian measurement—a 'journal' representing the area of land a single winemaker could work in one day.
Wine Description
The 2023 Romanée Saint Vivant Grand Cru Les Quatre Journaux exhibits a beautiful ruby colour in the glass. The nose is spectacularly flamboyant and elegant, developing intricate aromas of blackcurrant, cherry, and raspberry, accented by delicate floral notes, vanilla, and toasty oak spice. On the palate, this full bodied Pinot Noir is luscious, harmonious, and mouth filling, revealing fresh flavours of morello cherry, blackberry, and subtle underlying hints of iron. It is built on an open frame of velvety, finely integrated tannins and a lively acidity that perfectly balances its rich fruit concentration. The wine concludes with a complex, persistent, and silky aftertaste. Crafted from 100% Pinot Noir, the wine underwent traditional vinification before being aged for 10 to 12 months in 100% new French oak barrels. While highly expressive in its youth, its exceptional structure ensures a long drinking window, optimal for enjoyment between 2028 and 2045.
Vintage Quality
The 2023 vintage in the Côte de Nuits required careful vineyard management to balance high potential yields with aromatic concentration. A warm summer helped the Pinot Noir grapes reach superb phenolic ripeness, allowing winemakers to craft wines defined by generous fruit expression, vibrant acidity, and remarkably supple tannin structures.
