RATINGS

19.5Jancis Robinson

Hugely complex but decidedly ethereal... Wild and insouciant, this is like everyone's definition of what distinguishes red burgundy with its unformed perfume and soaraway quality. But underneath it builds to a wonderfully complex finish...

97Stephen Tanzer

Reticent, musky nose opens slowly to reveal blackberry, violet, wild herbs and spicy oak; in a rather feminine style and a showstopper. Juicy and penetrating but at the same time silky and sweet, offering an ineffable combination of red...

96The Wine Advocate

...reveal a precise, exquisitely focused bouquet with crushed strawberry, flint and smoke. The palate is devastatingly smooth on the entry. The tannins are lace-like, the acidity perfectly judged and it gently crescendos in the mouth...

96Vinous / IWC

A fascinating, utterly contemplative... Graphite, wild herbs, tar, plums & flowers meld together in a mysterious Burgundy endowed with considerable depth & power... going to be a fascinating wine to follow over the coming years and decades.

...wonderfully elegant, airy and ultra-pure... ultra-silky, impressive abundance of dry extract... deep and palate coating finish. The length here is genuinely amazing... with an unrivaled purity of expression. In sum, this is Zen-like.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Nuits-Villages, Vosne-Romanee, Romanee-Conti

Romanee-Conti is the most famous vineyard in the world, and certainly the most celebrated in Burgundy. It is a 4.32-acre Grand Cru parcel owned exclusively by Domaine de la Romanee-Conti. The Grand Cru pinot noir produced from the vineyard is one of the world’s most acclaimed wines. Romanee-Conti is a square-shaped plot enclosed on three sides by a stone wall. It is about half way up the slope with an elevation between 260 and 275 meters. The gentle incline makes for nearly perfect drainage and the vineyard receives sun all day. The soil is a sand, clay and limestone mixture.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, Grand Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
