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 is frequently called, is co-owned by the Villaine and Leroy families and produces only Grand Cru wines, such as this Échezeaux. The 2020 vintage is a beautiful expression of this particular terroir that needs 5 or 6 years to fully blossom.

The 2020 Echézeaux Grand Cru is one of the standouts in this tasting. Opulent and sumptuous to the core, the Echézeaux is a real head-turner. I suppose it is not as complex as some of the other wines in this range, but as Aubert de Villaine once said to me about his Montrachet "You don't always want complex, do you?" A rush of dark blue/purplish fruit, spice, chocolate, spice and lavender races across the palate. Readers will find a racy, hedonistic Burgundy that will drink well with minimal cellaring. What a wine!
