Domaine de la Romanée-Conti is the iconic Burgundy estate that produces the most exclusive and sought-after wines in the world. The domaine – which takes its name from its most famous vineyard – has a rich heritage that goes all the way back to the 16th century, when it was farmed by the Benedictine monks of Saint-Vivant de Vergy. DRC only produces grand cru wines, including this Richebourg, from a 3.51-hectare parcel. The 2017 vintage is a superb expression of its terroir, offering aromas of bergamot, anise, pomegranates and a thin layer of lavender. On the palate, the wine is firm, rich and dense.

The 2017 Richebourg Grand Cru is a fitting end to a vertical that several attendees voted wine of the night. It has a riveting bouquet, very harmonious with Earl-Grey-tinged red fruit, forest floor and hints of crushed stone. Wonderful delineation. The palate has exquisite balance and poise, a little powdery in texture with gentle grip. Layered dark berry fruit with hints of bay leaf and cola build towards the finish. Yes, it does need time, but I would not begrudge anyone giving into temptation in the near future. Tasted at the Richebourg vertical dinner in Taipei. Neal Martin17th June 2025
