Domaine Leroy Romanée-St-Vivant

Domaine Leroy’s Romanée-Saint-Vivant holds near mythic status among collectors, revered for an ethereal, perfume-driven complexity that few Burgundy pinots can match. Bottling barely 400 cases annually from a tiny 0.99-hectare plot, the scarcity and insatiable global demand keeps secondary market prices at astronomical heights. Sourced from old, biodynamically farmed vines, this 100% whole-cluster wine defies RSV’s reputation for light delicacy. While the site’s deep clay soils naturally encourage high yields, Leroy’s drastic pruning forces immense concentration, yielding a surprisingly dense, dark, and structured Grand Cru.
