 Recorked at the domaine. Incredible color, red center with a brick rim; more youthful than the 1966. The complex bouquet of autumn woods, smoke and mineral notes changed to wild strawberry and violet after about 20 minutes in the glass. Very sweet fruit in the mouth, displaying hints of caramel and raisin, this is expansive and vigorous at more than 60 years old. This continues to gain with time in the glass and just cruises along.

Domaine Romanée Conti
Domaine Romanée Conti

The Domaine de la Romanée-Conti is one of the most iconic wine estates in Burgundy and an absolute benchmark among the great wines of the world. Its history is intimately linked to the finest climates of Vosne-Romanée, of which it is the exclusive or near-exclusive custodian. The estate produces notably exceptional grands crus, among which Romanée-Conti, La Tâche, Richebourg, Romanée-Saint-Vivant, Grands Échézeaux, Échézeaux, as well as the celebrated Montrachet for white wines.

La Romanée-Conti, a Grand Cru classified vineyard, forms the historical and symbolic heart of the estate. Property of the domaine since the 18th century, this monopole vineyard embodies an exacting vision of wine, founded on precision, faithfulness to the terroir, and an extremely rigorous approach to viticulture. The Domaine de la Romanée-Conti is renowned for its constant pursuit of balance and purity of expression, favoring very low yields and meticulous work in the vineyard.

Iconic vintages such as Domaine de la Romanée-Conti 1942, the 1945 wine, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti 1986, the 1990 vintage, the year 2000, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti 2005, Romanée-Conti 2011, illustrate the estate's ability to produce wines of remarkable depth, capable of spanning decades while retaining an exceptional clarity of origin. The Domaine de la Romanée-Conti thus remains an essential reference for understanding the excellence and singularity of the great wines of Burgundy.
