Vivant 2016

  • Behind its clear, pale ruby color, Vivant 2016 hides a youthful nose and palate full of strawberries, red cherries, and sweet spices, such as white pepper. The finish is long, while the tannins are thin, creating a velvety texture. Alongside acidity and alcohol, they create a balanced and harmonious structure that will enable this wine to age elegantly.

  • Over the course of the Jurrasic era, our subsoil turned into a millefeuille of geologic strata, resulting in seven different plots within the Clos Marey-Monge. Each one has varying degrees of sun exposure, soil composition, and vine ages. Vivant is produced from five of the terroirs’ youngest vines.
