THE VINEYARDS OF DOMAINE DE LA ROMANEE-CONTI
The Domaine de la Románee-Conti owns 27 hectares of vines in prime sites in the commune of Vosne-Romanée together with a small holding in the Côte de Beaune. The top of the tree is Romanée-Conti itself, a monopole (wholly owned vineyard of 1.8 hectares), La Tâche, also a monopole with (6.06 hectares.) Richebourg 3.51 hectares, Romanée-Saint-Vivant (5.29 hectares), Grands Echézeaux (3.53 hectares) and Echézeaux (4.67 hectares). Also 1.02 hectares of Vosne-Romanée, Suchots and 2.26 hectares of Corton. Only a precious 0.67 hectares is made of Montrachet DRC, hectares and slightly less of Bâtard-Montrachet.
These varied sites prove unquestionably that the French notion of terroir is not a fancy figment of Gallic imagination for the differences between each of the wines is marked, so consistent. Yet all five of the DRC burgundies are made, traditionally, in the same cellars, mostly from grapes of the same variety. Romanée-Conti itself has a unique concentration, La Tâche has a different sort of intensity, each having a superb yet vividly contrasting bouquet. Richebourg, next door, has a broader character, and so on. So what produces those differences: slight variations in subsoil, slope and drainage, fractionally, virtually imperceptible microclimate. Who knows. But, even fermented and élévé identically, the final wines are different.
ROMANEE-CONTI
“Romanée-Conti,” as the local proverb goes, “is the central pearl of the Burgundian necklace.” This minuscule vineyard gives its name to the most famous Domaine in the world, commonly referred to as 'D.R.C.' or, more reverentially, as The Domaine. This pearl, this small jewel, just under 5 acres, was coveted by a famous collector of jewelry, Madame de Pompadour, but she was out bid by the Prince de Conti, hence the name. The King's minister won against the King's mistress! In 1868 the vineyard passed to the de Villaine family and is still, today, managed by Aubert de Villaine.
