Description

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.
