Domaine de la Romanée-Conti – often abbreviated as DRC – is one of the most prestigious and highly regarded wine estates in Burgundy. Located in the village of Vosne-Romanée, DRC is known for producing some of the finest and most sought-after wines in the world, primarily from Pinot Noir. The estate encompasses several Grand Cru vineyards, including the eponymous Romanée-Conti, La Tâche, Richebourg, Romanée-St-Vivant and Corton, where this release comes from. The 2012 vintage was a difficult one in Burgundy, marked by a late spring frost, hailstorms, and a cool, wet summer. Despite the challenges, DRC managed to produce a remarkable wine that showcases their expertise in winemaking.

The 2012 Corton boasts considerable energy and cut in its finely-sculpted fruit. Intense saline notes and searing tannins confer brightness. Chalk, white pepper and citrus overtones add lift. The Corton is not a shy wine, but its unbridled power needs to be tamed, something that will only happen with at least a few years in bottle. Actually, make that more than just a few years.Antonio Galloni1st April 2015
