Domaine de la Romanée-Conti – often abbreviated as DRC – is one of the most prestigious and highly regarded wine estates in Burgundy. Located in the village of Vosne-Romanée, DRC is known for producing some of the finest and most sought-after wines in the world, primarily from Pinot Noir. The estate encompasses several Grand Cru vineyards, including the eponymous Romanée-Conti, La Tâche, Richebourg, and Romanée-St-Vivant, where this release comes from. The 2011 vintage was characterized by a challenging growing season, with cool, wet weather and uneven ripening, but DRC`s skilled winemaking team managed to produce an outstanding wine.

Vinous
Dark, bright red. Discreet, pristine aromas of raspberry, violet, rose petal and earth. Dense, pure and round, boasting terrific volume to its fat, sweet flavors of strawberry, raspberry, chocolate and underbrush. This really saturates the mouth and glistens on the perfumed, seamless aftertaste. Tannins are extremely fine-grained and smooth. Incidentally, some of the replanted vines in this grand cru went into the 2012 RSV for the first time.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2014
