Romanée Conti Grand Cru
The former Cros des Cloux vineyard was renamed Romanée in the 17th century, with Conti being added after it was purchased by the Prince de Condé (or Conti) in 1760. He wanted the very best and kept it only for his own use and that of his immediate circle. Wine writers and critics across the centuries have singled out La Romanée-Conti as Burgundy’s greatest vineyard.

Domaine de la Romanee Conti (DRC),
Ready, but will improve,
The Domaine's 2006 Grands-Echezeaux is altogether less charming and flattering than its ostensibly lesser sibling, leading as it does with fresh red meat and pronouncedly saline, marine mineral notes even in the nose. In the mouth, this is relatively spare but formidably-concentrated and finely-tannic, with cedar, tartly-edged though ripe black fruits, and alkaline mineral notes that carry into a striking, bloodily carnal and almost briny finish. Here is Pinot Noir in its role as a mirror for human flesh and bone. What I see sends shivers down my spine and excites my imagination, but the wine seems to have no intention of flattering me. I didn't encounter another Pinot at all like this in the vintage, and it should be fascinating to follow for a dozen or more years, but unlike the Echezeaux, I would not plan to open any bottles for at least another 3-4.

Louis Jadot,
Ready, but will improve,
From some ancient vines which deliver only a tiny yield come the grapes for this lively and attractive wine. With its magical kernel of fruit, this is very lovely with explosive cherries, a satisfying texture and an appealing, fresh finish.
Jasper Morris MW, Berry Bros. & Rudd's Burgundy Director
Jacques Lardière, a veteran of 40 vintages, has been joined by Frédéric Barnier who has rapidly developed a detailed knowledge of all the Jadot vineyards, as well as playing a major role in the cellar alongside Jacques. This year the reds have had a slightly shorter vatting time than usual which gives them a notable delicacy of touch. The whites have an excellent balancing acidity as Jadot have retained much of the malic acid this year. Almost all the Jadot wines we offer can be considered as domaine bottled, from one or other of their holdings.

Domaine de la Romanee Conti (DRC),
Ready, but will improve,
Beautiful, flashing ruby, consistent to rim. The nose is broodingly closed with flashes of bright red fruits opening up slowly to reveal an almost honeyed sweetness of perfume of old, old vine fruit. The palate has absolute grace, an eerie balance of succulent, super-ripe fruit of fabulous density and an etheral but profound structure and length that finesses all the greatness of the other Grand Crus. Utterly magnificent. From 2015.
