Allen Meadow - Burghound April - 2017
Allen Meadow - Burghound
The once explosive black fruit nose has now begun to evolve and while still showing obvious class and breed, also displays the front edge of maturing fruit, spice and earth notes along with a hint of herbal character. The still firm but softening flavors possess impressive concentration with excellent depth of extract and lovely persistence. This has all the material it needs for a very long life and it should go for 30 years with no difficulty at all if properly stored. For my personal taste, this has arrived at its peak though I stresss that there is absolutely no rush to drink up because as I note, this should hold for a long time to come. Tasted four times in the last few years with consistent results.

Super vanilla, coffee, berry character, quite oaky and more like a Bordeaux than a Burgundy, but how can we fault it? Well structured and refined.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate August - 1995
Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
The medium ruby-colored Echezeaux offers a fragrant, open nose of red and black fruits, and spicy, smoky new oak, excellent concentration, good power, medium body, and plenty of firm tannin in the closed, compact, clean finish. Give it 5-6 years of cellaring and drink it over the subsequent 12-15. The DRC's 1993s possess the vintage's toughness, tannic structure, austerity, and aging potential. They will not be flattering to drink in their youth, and most will require 6-10 years of cellaring. Typical of the vintage, they appear to be the most tannic and structured wines made at this domaine since 1983.

Domaine Romanée Conti
Domaine Romanée Conti

Acquired by the Prince of Conti in 1760, this 1.85-hectare vineyard produces barely more than 6000 bottles per year of a mythical and exceptional wine. After the French Revolution, the Domaine was declared national property, and Romanée Conti had numerous owners, notably the Duvault-Blochet family, who acquired several other parcels including La Tâche, Richebourg, and Echézeaux. Today, each bottle of Romanée Conti bears the dual signature of Aubert de Villaine and Henry-Frédéric Roch. Romanée Conti was the last vineyard plot in Burgundy to resist phylloxera, but during World War II, the lack of carbon disulfide led to its destruction in 1945. For five years, from 1946 to 1951, no vintage was produced. The winemaking and aging conditions (maximum fruit maturity, very high selectivity, maximum precautions at each step, aging in new oak) allow for the production of an exceptional wine. Thus, aromas of magnificent complexity evoking rose, violet, spices, truffle, and leather are found in this sumptuous wine. Everything at Domaine Romanée Conti is implemented to produce only great wines for aging. Biodynamics has taken on a different role over the past decade under the new leadership of Henry Frédéric-Roch, one of the two co-managers of Domaine Romanée Conti along with Aubert de Villaine. All the appellations offered are at the pinnacle of elegance and depth. The owner of Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, one of the most renowned vineyards in the world, was elected Decanter Man of The Year 2010 by the eponymous specialized journal. It's a small revolution in the hierarchy of lucky winners as Aubert de Villaine is the first Burgundy wine producer to receive this award since its creation. Modest, it seems he initially refused his award, before reconsidering and finally accepting it. Co-owner of the family estate of Romanée-Conti with the Leroy family, Aubert de Villaine long hesitated before following in his father's footsteps. After studying law and literature, he flew to New York and began his career by importing Burgundy wines. Passionate about wine, he also took up journalism and interviewed, among others, Robert Mondavi in 1966. It was during this period that his father called him to his side. He started as an apprentice at the estate. Since then, he has never ceased to put his dedication, passion, and exacting standards at the service of Romanée-Conti, which continues to produce the greatest red wines in the world.
