Domaine de l'Arlot Romanee Saint Vivant Grand Cru is an intense purple in color. On the nose, the bouquet is very elegant and precise with notes of black cherry, raspberry, Earl Grey tea and a hint of crushed rose petals, all beautifully distinct. The palate is pleasantly full-bodied with fine tannins, a slightly crisp texture, and very well balanced with a mineral finish. Wonderful body and elegance in this Grand Cru which will develop well in the bottle over the years.
