Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, or simply ‘DRC’, is undoubtedly the most prestigious wine producer in Burgundy. The famous estate is co-owned by the Villaine and Leroy families and produces only Grand Cru wines. Historically, Montrachet has been the only white wine produced, but in 2018, DRC began farming a 2.9-hectare parcel of Corton-Charlemagne, leased from Domaine Bonneau du Martray. The 2019 vintage in Burgundy is marked by its intense fruit profile, solid structure and supple texture.

The 2019 Corton-Charlemagne is the debut release from vineyards DRC controls through a long-term lease with Bonneau de Martray. It's a gorgeous wine packed with Charlemagne signatures. Lemon peel, white flowers, sage, mint and crushed rocks are all finely knit together, supported by insistent minerality and admirable delineation. I love the energy, precision and cut here. Needless to say, it will be fascinating to see what DRC does here. The 2019 is impressive to be sure, but I have to think that even more will be possible here in the coming years.Antonio Galloni30th June 2022
