Romanée-St-Vivant

2004 Burgundy Red Blend

Chelsea Ventures Romanée-St-Vivant is a captivating red blend from the esteemed Burgundy region, celebrated for its elegant expression and complexity. This vintage boasts a lovely crimson hue that entices the eye, while the nose reveals a bouquet of dark cherries, earthy undertones, and hints of floral notes. On the palate, the wine showcases a medium body, with a harmonious balance of acidity that lends brightness without overpowering the fruit. The tannins are soft and refined, allowing the wine’s vibrant fruit intensity to shine through, making it wonderfully approachable yet layered. Its dryness complements the overall structure, resulting in a truly graceful experience that reflects the terroir of Burgundy's renowned Romanée-St-Vivant. This wine is not just a pleasure to drink but also a testament to the artistry of its production, capturing the essence of its origins.

Burgundy

Burgundy is the spiritual home of many of today's favorite winemaking styles. Steeped in history and prestige, it is the source of some of the most expensive wines in the world. A sprawling collection of tiny winemaking provinces (made up of over 100 different appellations), Burgundy is where the world's premier Chardonnay and Pinot Noir wines originated. Regions and subregions like Pouilly-Fuissé, Vosne-Romanée, Chassagne-Montrachet exude grandeur and opulence. While Burgundy is centered around a hallowed limestone escarpment known as the Côte d'Or, it actually stretches 200 miles, from Chablis just southeast of Paris, down to the Beaujolais plains above Lyon.
