For many fine wine aficionados, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti is the pinnacle of wine. Run by the indefatigable Aubert de Villaine, the domaine consists of 25 hectares of biodynamically tended vineyards, all of which are of Grand Cru classification and includes some of the greatest terroirs in Burgundy. A once in a lifetime Pinot Noir.

The 2015 Echézeaux Grand Cru was cropped at 25.70hl/ha and picked on 12 and 14 September. It has an engaging bouquet that offers a mixture of red and blue fruit, perhaps more floral than I have discerned in previous vintages, hint of crushed violet surfacing after 10 to 15 minutes in the glass. There is something playful about this Echézeaux. It’s a little ingenue. The palate is medium-bodied with juicy ripe fruit with commendable density, a little more sinew and backbone than previous vintages, albeit without the tension and complexity of its siblings on the finish. This is an impressive Echézeaux that should drink younger than its siblings. Tasted at Corney & Barrow’s annual in bottle tasting in London. Neal Martin1st April 2018
