Based in the Burgundy village of Vosne-Romanée, the Domaine makes wines from eight different grand cru vineyards that span the length of the Côte d'Or. The most famous comes from the eponymous Romanée-Conti vineyard, and on average is the most expensive wine in the world.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Domaine makes mostly Pinot Noir-based wines from 28 hectares (69 acres) of grand cru vineyard – represented alongside Romanée-Conti are La Tache, Romanée-Saint-Vivant and Richebourg in Vosne-Romanée; Corton-Bressandes, Corton Clos du Roi and Corton Renardes in Corton; and Échezeaux and Grands Échezeaux. Le Montrachet and Batard-Montrachet in the Côte de Beaune make DRC's only Chardonnay-based white wines.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eOf course, La Romanée-Conti is the Domaine's most famous asset, and the amount of wine made from less than 2ha (5 acres) of land amounts to just 6000 bottles a year. The vineyard has a long history, dating back to the Abbey of Saint-Vivant in the 13th Century. It took on the Romanée name in 1631, and the Conti in 1760. In 1869, it was obtained by Jacques-Marie Duvault-Blochet, who left it to his great grandchildren upon his death. It was then that the Société-Civile du Domaine de la Romanée-Conti was established to avoid Napoleonic inheritance laws.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eToday, DRC is owned in part by the de Villaine family and in part by the Leroy family.

It is blessed with one of those aromatic profiles that stops you in your tracks, in some ways stops time itself. There is an intensity and drive here, a mixture of red and black fruit, autumn leaves and wet limestone and later, roof tiles on a hot July afternoon. The palate is medium-bodied and nigh perfectly balanced. The tannins are filigree, the fruit extremely pure with an intense mineralité on the finish. There is an effortless quality about this La Tâche and yet is just clams up on the finish, does not quite deliver that knockout blow that so many other vintages have given. \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"first odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eWine Spectator\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"first odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eBurghound\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"first odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eVarietal\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003ePinot Noir\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"even\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003e2012\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eRating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003e97 RP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"even\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003e6 x 750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eBottle Quantity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003e6\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"even\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003eFrance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eRegion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003eBurgundy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"even\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eLocation\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003eCote de Nuits\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eProducer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003eRomanee Conti Domaine de la\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"even\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eColor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003eRed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"last odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth class=\"label\"\u003eWine Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"data last\"\u003eTable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e","brand":"CultWine.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":34344369586307,"sku":"47818818","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/9864\/7939\/files\/2012-domaine-de-la-romanee-conti-tache-burgundy-owc-6-x-750ml-wine-669.webp?v=1787371877","url":"https:\/\/cultwine.com\/fr\/products\/2012-drc-domaine-de-la-romanee-conti-la-tache-burgundy-owc-6-x-750ml","provider":"CultWine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
