Based in the village of Vosne-Romanée, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti is undoubtedly the most prestigious wine producer in Burgundy. The iconic estate is co-owned by the Villaine and Leroy families and produces only grand cru wines, such as this Grands-Echézeaux. The 2015 is an intense and elegant expression, with a typical red fruit profile, together with complex layers of mushrooms, earth and spices. Precise and polished.

The 2015 Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru was cropped at 30.42hl/ha on 11 and 12 September. It has a glorious bouquet that springs from the glass: Morello cherries, crushed strawberry, crushed stone, just a hint of bay leaf all beautifully defined and with a little more horsepower than the Echézeaux. The palate is medium-bodied with a gentle grip on the entry and comes across more saline in the mouth than its “little brother”. There is a pinch of spice that becomes more prominent with aeration and then against my expectations, it becomes understated and quite linear on the finish. One of the more backward 2015s from the domaine this year, I would cellar this for four or five years at least; a Grands Echézeaux that is full of secrets. Tasted at Corney & Barrow’s annual in bottle tasting in London. Neal Martin1st April 2018
