Domaine de la Romanée-Conti – often abbreviated DRC – is the legendary Burgundy wine producer that needs no introduction. With a long and fascinating history that goes back to the 16th century, today the estate is co-owned by two families, the de Villaine and the Leroy, with Alexandre Bernier in place as cellar master. The domaine`s Montrachet Grand Cru is one of the rarest and finest white wines, produced from a 0.67-hectare vineyard holding where the vines are over 60 years old. The 2019 vintage is rich and creamy on the nose, including aromas of ripe pears, lemon peel, hawthorn, honey and mineral accents. On the palate, the wine is lush and beautifully textured, leading to a satisfying, rounded finish.

The 2019 Montrachet Grand Cru is a very pretty wine. Orchard fruit, tangerine peel, crushed flowers and mint open effortlessly in a creamy, open-knit Montrachet that will drink well with minimal cellaring. My favorite DRC Montrachets are those that have a strong voice. I think about the mineral-drenched drive of vintages like 1996, 2010 or 2014, or more opulent years like 1995 or 2008 that are marked by strong botrytis character. These are wines you taste once and remember for the rest of your life. The 2019 is attractive and delicious, but without the visceral thrill of the very best years.Antonio Galloni30th June 2022
