The Romanée-Saint-Vivant Appellation

Since 1936, Romanée Saint Vivant has been a French Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (AOC). The Romanée Saint Vivant appellation is primarily a Burgundy Grand Cru, produced by estates: Arnoux-Lachaux, the famous Domaine de la Romanée Conti or the André Cathiard estate.

With over 9.3 hectares of vineyards, the appellation produces exclusively Pinot Noir. The wines offer aromas of roses and cherries. This wine with its fine and delicate texture is considered the most "feminine" of Vosne's grand crus. The aging potential of a bottle of Romanée Saint Vivant is 10 to 20 years, up to 50 years for the greatest vintages.

The vintages 1943, 1952, 1954, 1985, and 1988 are exceptional vintages in the Romanée Saint Vivant appellation. The wines from 1953, 1961, 1962 as well as the 1989 and 1996 vintages are excellent. The appellation also includes exceptional vintages such as 1945, 1969, and the 2001 vintage. Finally, the best vintages of the appellation are 1929, 1947, the 1959 vintage, 1971, and the 2005 vintage.

Founded by the Saint-Vivant monastery, the vineyard is located east of Richebourg and just below Romanée Conti. This monastery, ruins of such great wealth, became famous when at the end of the 18th century the Prince of Conti stopped selling his romanée and kept its benefits for himself. The ruins of the former abbey were bought to be restored by Domaine de la Romanée Conti: the largest producer of the appellation.
