As usual, I am not going to enter into detail about the 2019s from Domaine de la Romanée-Conti since that is reserved for my annual in-bottle article when the wines are sold. So you might argue that these in-barrel notes are academic. On the other hand, they serve a purpose in that they can be measured against other wines included in this report. In fact, this was a last-minute addition since the domaine understandably was not accepting visitors as Covid numbers were increasing. In the end, they accepted a strictly limited number of Burgundy journalists in groups of three. Bertrand de Villaine took us through the reds from barrel. One or two things to note... Firstly, I want to point out the exceptional showing of Grands-Echézeaux. It seems obvious to rank the cuvées according to reputation or price from Corton/Echézeaux up to Romanée-Conti instead of assessing exactly what is in your glass. Consequently, I often feel that the Grands-Echézeaux is under-evaluated simply because of the company it keeps. But when the wind blows in the right direction, it performs close to the domaine’s very best wines. I was also taken by the opulence of the Romanée-Saint-Vivant vis-à-vis the Richebourg, which I preferred. Also, I found the stem addition more visible compared to the La Tâche where it felt more assimilated. These were exceptional 2019s. What I am intrigued is to find out how they show against each other once in bottle.
