TASTING_NOTES_HEADING_BLACK

What a generous vintage! The 2023 Echézeaux offers dark, concentrated plum fruit on the initial attack, with nuances of peonies, earth, and smoke. The texture is firmly structured and robust, yet there is restraint as well. It doesn't seem to have the exuberance of the 2022 vintage, but with time, it will likely wake up. The grapes are from the domaine's 4.5 hectares in Poulaillères, among the last to be picked, between 15-17 September; they were fermented as whole clusters and are ageing in new casks. Drink 2030-2070. 96 points Charles Curtis MW, Decanter

A glowing purple, more like the colour we would expect. Concentrated fruit, less floral than usual. Broad shoulders but the detail can be seen only a little below the surface, with excellent red fruit energy, brambly raspberries, a good pinpoint acidity. Drink from 2030-2038+. 96 points Jasper Morris MW, Inside Burgundy

Producer

Domaine de la Romanee-Conti

Domaine de la Romanee-Conti, often abbreviated as DRC, is widely considered to be one of the most renowned wine producers in the world, and undoubtedly the best in the Burgundy region. This esteemed estate is responsible for crafting seven exceptional wines, including a single white made from Chardonnay grapes, and six reds made from Pinot Noir grapes, all sourced from the highest ranking Grand Cru vineyards in Burgundy. The history of this vineyard dates back to the early 1500s when it was cultivated by monks. Over time, ownership of the vineyard changed hands several times, eventually falling into the possession of the de Villaine family. In 1911, Edmund de Villaine took over as director of the estate and later sold shares to his friend Henry Leroy. The latter's financial stability ensured the estate's vineyards were maintained to the highest standards. Presently, Domaine de la Romanee-Conti is co-owned and operated by Aubert de Villaine, and Henri Roch, the grandson of Henry Leroy. All of the vineyards are farmed organically, and some even meet biodynamic standards. The yields from these vineyards are incredibly low, with it taking an average of three vines to produce a single bottle of wine. In the winery, the wine is moved using gravity to avoid the need for pumping, and no filtration takes place. Fining only occurs when necessary, and the wine is aged in 100% new French oak for up to 20 months before bottling.
