Domaine de la Romanée-Conti, often abbreviated as DRC, stands as the legendary Burgundy wine producer that requires no introduction. With a rich and captivating history tracing back to the 16th century, the estate is currently co-owned by two esteemed families, the de Villaine and the Leroy, with Alexandre Bernier serving as the cellar master. Among their extraordinary portfolio, DRC`s Montrachet Grand Cru stands out as one of the rarest and most exquisite white wines, sourced from a 0.67-hectare vineyard with vines over 60 years old. The 2020 vintage experienced warmth and dryness, with the grapes harvested under the late-August sun. Strikingly, both red and white expressions display remarkable freshness and purity, adding to their allure.

The 2020 Montrachet Grand Cru is elegant, airy and so expressive. It reminds me of vintages such as 2001 and 2004, Montrachets that favored precision and freshness over volume or exotic richness. Hints of lemon confit, marzipan, white flowers and tangerine oil all grace this exquisite, mid-weight Montrachet from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti. I went back to the 2020 numerous times during this tasting and witnessed it open beautifully with aeration and time in the glass. Antonio Galloni1st March 2023
