The Latour family have been the owners of part of Romanée-Saint-Vivant since December 1898. "Les Quatre Journaux" is a magnificent plot located in the south-west of Romanée Saint Vivant, a few meters from the Romanée-Conti vineyard. A "Journal" is an old Burgundian measurement corresponding to approximately 0.4 hectares (34.28 ares). Although Latour's first purchase included the entire lot, half was sold a few years later. Today, Maison Louis Latour owns 0.8 hectares of Romanée-Saint-Vivant. It offers a fantastically aromatic wine, with a velvety texture that culminates in a persistent and powerful finish in the mouth.
