Based in the Burgundy village of Vosne-Romanée, Domaine de la Romanée Conti is arguably the most aspirational brand in the world of fine wine. DRC, as it’s frequently called, is co-owned by the Villaine and Leroy families and produces only grand cru wines, such as this Échezeaux. The 2017 vintage marked a changing of the guard, as it represents the final one of the legendary winemaker Bernard Noblet. The wine shows great intensity and charm, with remarkable freshness and ferny quality on the end.

The 2017 Echézeaux Grand Cru is similarly lifted, with a bit darker fruit and more structure than the Corton. A deceptive, beguiling Burgundy, the 2017 shows the mid-weight structure of the year. Here too, time in the glass brings out the wine’s vertical feel and overall intensity. The 2017 needs time to soften, but it is incredibly persistent and impeccable in its balance. Readers should expect an especially austere Echézeaux that is going to require cellaring. The fruit was brought in on September 13 and 15, with a day’s break in between because of rain.Antonio Galloni1st July 2020
