Richebourg, Domaine de la Romanee-Conti [Multiple Vintage Listing] Richebourg, Domaine de la Romanee-Conti Cote de Nuits, Grand Cru 1982 (1 bt) Heavily damp stained label 2000 (1 bt) Slightly scuffed label Lot 7 2 bts (sc) per lot: USD 1300-1900 The Domaine, as it is known, is iconic. Much more important, it also produces the most extraordinary wines in Burgundy - and it has been doing so for a long time. The generations responsible for the Domaine change, but the terroir remains. And these are very special vineyard parcels indeed, married to meticulous care and philosophy leading to low yields and healthy, ripe grapes, at whatever cost. From the 1990s, vineyard policy has been organic, with co-owner Aubert de Villaine monitoring everything with his usual attention to detail. Domaine de la Romanee-Conti wines evolve and develop dimensions in a way that resembles a mosaic - points of bouquet and flavour making up a harmonious whole that becomes more beautiful as it unfolds in the glass. Yes, these are hedonistic wines and yes, they are not like any other. The trick is in capturing what these remarkable plots of vines can give and letting them express themselves through minimum intervention and enlightened nurturing. SS. 3.51 ha (8.6 acres) average production 1000 cases, average age of vines: 39 years The Domaine owns 50% of this vineyard. Aged in barrels purchased from cooper Francois Freres, as all the DRC wines are, they benefit from a superb position in the vineyard and, in the great vintages, Richebourg is like velvet come to life. SS. Quantity: 1
