✨ Technical Specifications
The 2019 Romanée-Conti Grand Cru represents the absolute pinnacle of Burgundy, born from a legendary 1.81-hectare monopole vineyard with a history of viticulture dating back to the Roman era. In 2019, a warm and remarkably dry growing season yielded tiny, concentrated berries of exceptional health and balance. The wine was crafted from 100% Pinot Noir, fermented in open-top wooden vats, and aged for nearly two years in entirely new French oak barrels. This vintage is characterized by its ethereal, multi-layered aromatic complexity—ranging from crushed rose petals and exotic spices to dark red berries and forest floor—underpinned by an astonishingly silky, weightless structure and a finish that lingers for minutes. It is a monumental expression of a historic terroir meeting a stellar vintage.
🍾 About the Producer
With a lineage tracing back to the Benedictine monks of Saint-Vivant and later immortalized by the Prince de Conti in the 18th century, Domaine de la Romanée-Conti stands as the pinnacle of fine winemaking. Situated in the celebrated village of Vosne-Romanée in Burgundy's Côte de Nuits, the estate is co-owned by the de Villaine and Leroy/Roch families. Farming exclusively through rigorous biodynamic practices with low yields and meticulous whole-cluster vinification, the domaine seeks total transparency of terroir. It produces some of the world's most coveted and profound Grand Cru Pinot Noir wines, headlined by the legendary monopoles Romanée-Conti and La Tâche alongside storied climats like Richebourg, Romanée-Saint-Vivant, and Échezeaux.
